8th Grade Math: Today in math we finished buying the stocks that we chose to invest in for the next several months.  Students who did not finish this should finish the assignment for homework tonight (due tomorrow at the start of class).  We also studied/gave notes for the quiz that we will have tomorrow over all the strands of "Life Math" we have covered so far.  Included will be paychecks, taxes, housing, and investing (savings accounts versus stock market).
