Thursday April 8th, 2010

7th & 8th Grade General Science: Today in science students got into their groups for the "Vitamins Project" and they made a decision on the final product that they would be working together to create. After meeting within their group they divided up research responsibilities between each member.
Homework: None

7th Grade Math: In math 7th graders reviewed associative and commutative properties of multiplication and division. We then launched into section 6.6 which covers rational numbers and additive and multiplicative properties of identity and inverse. Students ended class by completing #1-6 and 10-15 (all) on 6.6 practice. If they did not finish in class it was assigned as homework.
Homework:
  • Finish section 6.6 Practice (#1-6 and 10-15)
  • Review Homework #2 is due Friday.

8th Grade Math: Today 8th graders continued learning about probability by studying "tree diagrams" and using the "counting principle" to solve situational probability problems.
Homework:
  • Finish Section 6.8 practice (2-12 evens)
  • Review #2 is due Friday.
