Thursday September 1, 2016

Algebra I: There was no 8th grade math today, as all 8th graders attended the play at Perseverance Theatre.  

Assignments:  The problems from the text book, page 23 # 2-17 are due Friday in class.

7th Grade Math: Today in math students began class with their flashmaster activities.  We then graded our homework, page 12 from the textbook, #1-39.  Next, all 7th graders got together and we watched a film about Fastballs and baseball, and made some connections to how math and science is used in a sport like baseball.

Assignments:  Review HW #4 is due Friday.   

Science:  Today in science students began class with the Do Now.  Students then continued a class discussion on what observation is and how it is used in science.  We then shared observations about the leaves we collected yesterday with table group members.  Our discussion led to talk about what makes a good observation, and how making good observations can be helpful if you needed to identify a plant leaf at a later date.   

Assignments: Students have been assigned to write a descriptive paragraph about a common household object that they will share in class on Friday.
