Math 6

This week we are continuing with our unit on expressions.  We will be exploring the basics of Algebra.  We will be learning about coefficients, variables, and constants.  This will lead us to translating various expressions from words to numerical form.  At the end of the week, we will be working on a google slide presentation about Algebra.  This project will not be due until sometime next week, depending on how far the children get in class.  There are not any tests or quizzes this week.  When needed, extra help sessions are by appointment through Zoom.

Math 8 (Pre-Algebra)

This week we will be finishing up with our chapter on Polynomials.  We will have a quiz on the second half of the chapter (8.5 to 8.8) on Tuesday, 3/9.  The quiz will cover different factoring methods that we have explored.  For the remainder of the week we will review the entire chapter for our unit exam which will be on Monday, 3/15.  When needed, extra help sessions are by appointment through Zoom.
