Math 7
-Today we reviewed how to multiply two-digit by two-digit numbers. I showed the students two methods. This was identified as an area of weakness on the assessment that we did last week.
-We Practiced how to model integers with counters. Students had some time to work on questions from text but we will finish it next class.
Math 6
-Students did a placement test so that I know where they are at with their basic math facts. This does not count, but is used to help me know where to start with our learning this year.
-The last 20 minutes of class we played multiplication war game. Students will have a small assessment on multiplication tables at the end of the week. They should be reviewing them at home this week.
Science 7
-We finished our activity from last class on water systems. We shared our knowledge as a group. Students were to write three points from what they learnt on a sheet and it was passed into me.
-We went over lab safety. We watched two lab safety videos and read a list of rules.
-Students wrote notes on three equipment that we will be using in the lab this year.
