Algebra I: Today in math students began class with a Do Now and a set of warm up problems.  Next, students jumped into chapter 3.  We graded our homework from class on Monday, before the class began a discussion on how to determine whether a function is linear or nonlinear.  After some teacher led instruction and several examples worked out together, students were assigned workbook page 68, to be due Wednesday in class.

Assignments:  Students were assigned workbook page 68, to be due on Wednesday in class.

7th Grade Math: Today in math students began class with their flashmaster activities.  We then jumped back into chapter 2 and began discussing rational numbers.  Today students were learning or reviewing the rules for multiplying and dividing integers.  We then took those rules, and incorporated them into working (multiplying and dividing) rational numbers.  After some teacher led instruction and several examples, students were assigned some homework from their textbooks, page 68 # 10-21; 22, 24, 26, 28, 30.  These problems will be due on Wednesday in class.

Assignments:  Review HW #13 is due on Wednesday in class.  Students were assigned some problems from the textbook, page 68 # 10-21; 22, 24, 26, 28, 30.  These problems are due Wednesday in class.

Science:  Today in science students began class with the Do Now.  Next, students jumped into the study of inquiry. Students participated in a group discussion about how to make hypotheses and support that hypothesis with some factual evidence or observations based on the situation.  The Biological Box activity that students participated in today was designed to help students connect these concepts.  

Assignments: None.
