Academic Update 1/13 - 1/17
*Hope everyone had a great holiday break! It has been a busy first week back for sure! We took our quiz today on Chapter 4. We will begin looking at applying proportional reasoning to similar triangles and scale drawings this week. No quizzes or tests this week but our Chapter 4 Unit Test will be the following week.
*No CR this week due to testing and the upcoming holiday weekend.

Academic Update 12/16 - 12/20
* We will begin our ratio/proportion unit this week. The students will be given back their calculator and we will use them daily. They will be able to use them on homework, quizzes, and tests. There is a restricted use on weekly CRs because many of the skills on the CR were taught without the calculator. We will cover ratios, unit rates, and ratio tables this week.
* No quizzes or tests this week.
*All make-up work is due by Wednesday, Dec. 18th

Academic Update 12/2 - 12/6
*I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving break! We have only 3 weeks left in the nine weeks so it will be a busy end of the nine weeks.
*We will review one-step equations at the beginning of the week then review for our equations quiz that will be on Thursday, Dec. 5th. We will begin inequalities on Friday. Most of the students are doing well with showing their steps on equations, but I will continue to remind the students this week how important these steps are in solving more complex equations later in the year. Points will be deducted on the quiz if the work is not shown on both sides of the equations and it does not justify the answer.
*Equations Quiz ~ Thursday, December 5th
**Check INOW periodically for 0.01 codes that can be made up for partial credit by Wednesday, December 18th.
*POTW #3 will be posted by Friday, December 6th and due next Friday, December 13th.

Academic Update 11/18 - 11/22
*We will review in class on Monday for our Integer Test. I will offer a study session on Tuesday, Nov. 19th at 7:30 AM. HERE is a hall pass if you should need to show it to the office staff or an adult on duty in the gym. We will begin our Equations Unit on Wednesday. This is a major foundational unit for Algebra I, so I will expect ALL work to be shown the way I model it in class. There will be points deducted on HW and quizzes/tests for work not being shown properly.
*Integer Test ~ Tuesday, November 19th
*Equations Quiz ~ the week we return - possibly Wed. 12/4 or Thurs. 12/5.
*IXL Contract 2-2 due Friday, Nov. 22nd by 3:15!

Academic Update 11/11 - 11/15
*We will work with basic operations with rational numbers and the coordinate plane this week. Our Integer Unit Test will be on Tuesday, November 19th. For students that struggled with our fraction and decimal units, this may be a challenging week. We will use their prior knowledge of adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing fractions and decimals to now include negative fractions and decimals as well. There will be a study session on Tuesday, Nov. 19th.
*IXL Contract 2-2 will be given on Tuesday, November 12th and due Friday, November 22nd at 3:00. This will replace our CR for the week of 11/11 and 11/18. Please encourage your child to work on this over the course of the two weeks and not wait until the last minute.
*POTW #2 (Extra Credit) will be posted by Monday, November 11th and due Monday, November 18th.
