Weekly News

This week in Math we will be continuing our practice with working with tables and graphs. Last week, students focused their time on the 5 criteria needed for a graph, as well as learning about scale and plotting points. This week, students will be learning how to make a table from a graph, AND making both a table and a graph from notes. So far, I am extremely impressed with their hard work and diligence as we begin our first algebra unit. I look forward to them shining on their first quiz on Friday!

In Science we will continue looking at the unknown mixture and discuss the plans the students made on Friday as far as how to separate the mixture. We will then further analyze each liquid and solid separately in order to discover what each of the components of the mixture really is. Again, students should prepare to have another notebook quiz on Friday. Make sure all analysis questions are answered and complete, as well as all vocabulary words written in your notebook.

We will continue using Advisory as a MEAP review time and/or study time, depending on the day. Students will be asked to fill out a short survey regarding their goals and interests, and will also be taking it home for their parents responses as well. This will help us as we develop our first learning plan in the coming weeks.

I am looking forward to another great week! Let me know if you have any questions!!
