Tuesday, January 22

Science: Went over Investigation 4-A and the Work/Mechanical Advantage homework from last week. Quest is tomorrow!

Geometry: Went over notes for 7.3 (similar right triangles and geometric mean). 7.3 worksheet is homework. Quiz for chapter 7 is on Thursday and Kitchen Geometry Project is due on Friday.


Spanish I: Study for the midterm tomorrow and Thursday. Study the oral questions for Monday, January 28th.


Humanities: Students were introduced to chapter 8 and began to work on 8.1 guided questions in class. Homework is to complete 8.1 guided questions.


ELA - Literary Analysis papers were handed back and we had a discussion as to the need to come in at lunch for any individual help needed.  Many students did not follow the lessons taught in Writer's Workshop, did not follow the rubric, and did not come in to get help during lunch.  The average grade for the class was very low in my eyes. We reviewed the Grammar Packet from Friday and will move on with our grammar study tomorrow.  Remember Journals are due tomorrow, no ifs ands or buts.  This should have been done during Writer's Workshop and every night during the marking period, it should be an easy "A". Homework: Journal entry #56


Pre-Algebra: Homework: Practice 5.6B (multiples of 5)
 
Algebra: Study for Midterm!  Test starts tomorrow.
