A new Missing Assignment Report has been posted in the classroom, please remind your student to see what assignments they are missing or need to be made up.  Time will be short following winter break.

7th Grade Math - Students worked on a Equivalent Fraction interactive lesson activity in the math notebook.  The lesson had the students creating a "pizza" that was portioned off into different sizes.  The goal is for students to see equivalent fractions.  ex.  1/8 + 1/8 = 2/8 or 1/4.  The students were given time in cut, label, paste as well as list decimal equivalents and three equivalent fractions for each portion.    Students not completing the assignment in class need to finish for homework.

Pre-Algebra - The test from Friday was handed back and gone over in class.  We started Chapter 3 by defining and taking notes on Rational & Irrational Numbers.  Several examples were given and students had to classify each example as rational or irrational.  A short video was shown to further define rational & irrational numbers.  Students were given time in class to complete the 8 problem homework.    Pg 115 1-8 all, if not completed in class.
