Science: Students recieved science books or CD's today and did a textbook scavenger hunt to get acclimated to their new textbooks. "Candy Coated" lab was turned in and I am hoping to get the labs all read and returned to students by Friday. No Homework!!!!
Geometry: Quizzes were returned, students may do quiz corrections for 1/2 credit. Quiz corrections must be on a separate sheet of paper (or the back of the quiz) and have work shown or explanation for each question. We also went over the 1.5 notes, 1.5 worksheet is homework. Chapter 1 test will be Monday, September 26.
Pre-Algebra-We talked about powers and exponents today. Homework-worksheet 1.2, odds.
Language Arts: Students discussed the new Vocabulary List (#2) and were given the definition. Work from last week was handed back (Friday's are too crazy for hand back day so I'm going to try out Mondays). Students were reminded that we will be starting our first novel unit next week, therefore they should have at least one book read and tested by the end of the week. All 8th grade students should have an AR book with them daily for "free time" reading. Three books are due by the end of the marking period...which is October 28th. Homework: READ
Humanities: Students shared college essays and reviewed the Core Democratic Values in class. Homework is to write about which value is most important to you and why. Be sure to share and discuss your choice with somebody at home.
Algebra (Graham): I handed back the quizzes from Friday. Please look them over to clear up any misconceptions before the Unit test. Please contact me if you have any concerns. We started section 2.1 today. We will finish it tomorrow. No homework tonight!
