We begin our third week of the second marking period...Mr. Brenner, our student teacher from the University of Rochester will be doing a great deal of the teaching in the Morehouse and Harvard group. He will be with us until Thanksgiving break.
EXTRA HELP is always available the first 15 minutes of lunch! I encourage scholars to stop by and make sure they know what is going on.
Math 7 Honors:
This week Vassar will have classes on M,W,F and Morehouse will be T and Th. We are working on graphing algebraic expressions, creating a table of values and continuing our work with writing expressions. We will learn about linear equations and how to use them to make predictions...start thinking about words like slope and y-intercept. There will be homework each time we meet. There will be a quiz Friday and next Monday.
Math 7:
This week Columbia will have classes M,W,F and Harvard will be T and TH. We have mastered adding integers, are still trying to get our head around subtraction of integers, and think that multiplying and dividing seem pretty easy. Now...if we could just use the right strategy for the right problem, we would be all set! We have been doing a lot of practice problems, and games to help us get the integer thing down. There is homework each time that we meet. There will be a quiz on Friday and next Monday
As always, please contact me if you have any questions, concerns or ideas!
