Welcome to 4th quarter

Today everyone's grades start out at 100%.  Will you keep your grade this high?  Remember, today is the starting period for qualifying for Cedar Point.  You are not able to fail more than one class with a 69% or below, or have 5 or more signatures on your card in order to go.

In Math this week, we will continue multiplying polynomials.  We will review what we learned before break, with multiplying binomials together (using FOIL or the graphic organizer), and then look into special cases of multiplying polynomials as well as bigger polynomials.  Later in the week we will study how to factor (deFOIL) problems from larger polynomials to smaller binomials.

In Science we are going to look at the moon and it's phases.  Hopefully everyone completed their moon phase sheet over break so we can learn the names of the phases and look at the cycle of moon phases a little better.  At the end of the week, we will look at a moon phase simulator on the computer and have a final discussion of moon phases.

In Advisory we are going to review major skills that we have learned over the year.  This will help us prepare for the final exam at the end of the year, as well as the last interim assessment which we will have later in May.

Don't forget you had 20 questions to complete over break.  Hopefully you have successfully completed it, because this will be your first grade for 4th quarter.  Let's finish strong everyone!  If you have any questions, let me know!

  2. Trinity,

    In the past, the school does not put on the prom. In fact a parent usually puts it together and has it at a location off of school, so it isn't technically a "school" event.
