8th Grade Math: Today in math students continued working with their "Life Math" unit.  Packet #1 and worksheet #2 are due tomorrow at the end of class.  Many students have been struggling to make accurate calculations when working with decimals in a real-world context.  They have not been allowed to continue without their numbers being 100% accurate.
