Week of May 9th

Last week was one of our last normal weeks of the school year. This week our team has NWEA testing. We are going to start the math section of the math test on Monday during math class and see how things go. Hope that we are done by Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest. No Sunshine Math sheet or POW this week. When we get time, we will be continuing to work on the lessons in Chapter 7, especially two step equations. You should be practicing some each night as part of your studying. In social studies, I hope to show the President speaking on 60 Minutes on Monday and then continue to work through Chapter 8 at a fairly rapid pace. Our Current Event this week is to find a positive news story or article. We will discuss in class on Monday what I mean by positive, but you should be able to figure it out on your own, something that is good or has a happy ending. Your type written paragraphs will be due on Thursday.
