Weekly News

This week in Math we are going to continue our focus of solving equations. Early in the week we will practice solving multi-step equations as well as give an explanation for each step that is completed. We will have a quiz on this (Embedded Assessment #2) on Thursday. On Friday, we are going to start learning about and solving inequalities.

In Science we are going to review activities 4-6 on Monday and have a quiz of this material on Tuesday. We will start Activity 7 on Tuesday, after the quiz. This activity will allow students to combine different beams of colored light to make other colors. Students will also look at the position of shadows and how they are affected by different colors of light. Later in the week, Activity 8 will be completed, which includes the idea of how much energy is transferred when light is used, and how long it takes for this light energy to be transferred.

In Advisory we are going to continue using it as extra Math time. We will go over homework problems from the week as well as review the skills that students had difficulty on, on the Interim Assessment that was completed 2 weeks ago.
