Math 8

-No class on Thursdays.

Math 7

-Today we reviewed the rules for modeling subtraction of integers using counters.  Students are to complete the formative worksheet for homework.  Students should also be working on their Mathletics tasks at home.  Students had part of math class and a work period today to complete work.

Math 6

-Today we did a group review of outcomes N1 and N7 for the test tomorrow.  See notes attached below for examples of questions that will be on the test.  Students were given a place value table that will help students who are struggling with place value questions.  This is an aid that students can use.  The goal would be that with practice they can begin to answer the questions without the use of the table. 

-Summative test (one that counts for report card) is tomorrow.

-Continue to use Mathletics to practice and review.  Tasks should be completed for Monday morning.  Each week new tasks will be assigned based on the student’s area of need.

 

Science 7

-Today we took notes on the particle theory of matter.  We learnt that there are 3 states of matter: solids, liquids and gas.  

-Homework is to review and study new terms.

-Students should be working on their Mathletics tasks at home.

Math 6

-Today we continued our work with place value.  We went over the homework and corrections can be found in the notes posted below. 

-Students are to complete the formative assignment.  This does not count for the report card but is used to help students know what type of questions will be on the test.  It will help them to identify what questions they know and what questions they need to review and study.  Sometimes they are collected and corrected by the teacher, other times we will correct them as a class.

-Summative test that counts will be Friday.

Science 8

-Students continue to film their video project.  Groups should be starting to move into the editing and re-shooting phase.  Presentations next week.
