Geometry: Students took the 1.1-1.4 quiz. Completing the 1.5 notes is homework (we will go over the notes on Monday). Students need to use their textbooks to help them complete the notes, the examples in the notes are very similar to the examples in the book.
Science: Today we completed Investigation 1-A by collecting data with the cars and the tracks. Students investigated how changing distance between photogates (independent variable) affects the amount of time it takes for the car to travel between the photogates (dependent variable). Homework is to complete the "Candy Coated" Lab, final draft is due on Monday, this is a TEST grade!!!!!!!
Language Arts: Students took a "MAZE" reading assessment. Our first vocabulary quiz went very well. Students need to remember to have their AR book with them every day, as when they are done with their quiz or classwork they may use that time to read. The AR computer was open and many students used this time to get up to date with their quarterly 3 book requirement. Great Job 8th Graders! Homework: READ! New Vocab on Monday and the beginning of our Science Fiction Unit.
Pre-Algebra: We finished talking about lesson 1.1. Homework is worksheet 1.1 2 - 28 evens.
