Pre-Algebra: We reviewed for our chapter test that will be given on Friday. The test covers the following concepts: area, perimeter, like terms, coefficients, distributive property, and solving equations. Sounds overwhelming, but all of these concepts are related and build upon one another. Homework: Study!!
Algebra: We did not meet today. Friday we will be going over the review and preparing for our test on Monday. The review is attached in case you need another copy.
ELA - Students Read, took AR quizzes and wrote to the following prompt in their Writer's Journal: Would you like a career chosen for you at age 12? Why or why not? AM classes had their journal entries and vocabulary definitions checked for a homework grade. They then reviewed the correct definitions for their vocabulary (in prep for Friday's quiz) and held their first class discussion of a novel. Many interesting comments and questions arose from this discussion. Glad to see students are seeing this novel anew with their more mature 8th grade eyes. Homework: Read, study for vocabulary and The Giver chap 1-5 quiz on Friday. Write journal entry #39 *Remember students should have 40 journal entries ready to turn in for a Summative Assessment on Monday.
