Math 8 - Stone

Today, we spent a while reviewing our worksheets where we simplified radicals, solved equations, and practiced the Pythagorean Theorem. This gave us the opportunity to clarify misunderstandings and prepare for our quiz.

Since the PSAT is tomorrow, we have moved the quiz to Thursday to give us a short testing break.
