Weekly News

This week in Math we will be finishing up Unit 4, by taking our test on Monday.  PLEASE refer to the study guides given in class on Thursday and Friday to help you study!  On Tuesday, we will start our last unit, Unit 5, dealing with Quadratic functions. 

In Science we are going to wrap up our unit on the moon, sun, and Earth, by completing a project regarding imaginary planets.  We will be comparing their rotation and revolution period with Earth, as well as their axis tilt and number of moons.  Students will work on the project on Tuesday and Wednesday, and have Thursday to present it in class.  Students will also get a review sheet at the end of the week to prepare for Monday's test.

  1. For our Science project that's due on Monday, could we be able to paste pictures on a poster board? Like show examples of where each moon phase occurs with the sun, earth, ect and explain how/why?

  2. Yes, you can paste pictures on a poster board. Just make sure you include all 8 of the phases in the right location! I look forward to seeing how it turns out!!!
