Week of October 6th- 9th.

Surpise...in math class we are doing the RCSD benchmark testing. It is comprised of two one-hour exams. It is designed to give an idea of how well scholars would do if they took the NYS 7th grade test today instead of March. Originally we were going to take it in homebase but we took it during Math class instead.

Beyond the test, Ms. Drake tried to sneak in some lessons:
Math 7 Honors (Vassar and Morehouse): We played around with algebra tiles and solved two-step equations. Scholars had a take home test that was due on Monday/Tuesday.

Math 7 (Columbia and Harvard): We played around with integer chips and began working on adding integers.
There is a quiz on Wednesday/Thursday

Everyone should have handed in there binder and made up any make up tests/work by now. The first marking period ends on October 17th!
