Math 8

We continued working on the Pythagorean Theorem.  The concept reinforcement for tonight is to practice for the summative assessment (tentatively scheduled for our afternoon math class tomorrow, assuming all goes well in the morning class) using the questions on pages 49 and 50 - #6 TO #11, #13,#14 and #15.  You can see today’s lesson in detail in the pdf file below.

Math 7

Today, we reviewed fractions and how to represent them as terminating and periodic decimals.  We then continued working on Section 3.2 of the unit which teaches students how to compare and order fractions and decimal numbers.  We have been working on comparing fractions using number lines as well as using common denominators.  The concept reinforcement for tonight is on page 94 - #3 and #4.  You can see today’s lesson in detail in the pdf file below.

Math 6

We reviewed how to represent decimal numbers in a variety of ways (symbolically, with words and using expanded notation).  We began Section 3.2 of the unit today which involves estimating products and quotients.  Students were provided with the necessary vocabulary for this section of the unit and are asked to review their notes tonight.  You can see today’s lesson in detail in the pdf file below.

Science 7

We reviewed procedure writing when it comes to science experiments, especially the use of the imperative verb tense.  We also did an activity in which students were required to identify verbs conjugated using the imperative verb tense in a step-by-step procedure and then perform the actions these verbs required, resulting in the creation of a puppet.  There is no homework.
