Week of June 4th

Wow, last full week of school. Time to wrap things up and send you off to the high school. Monday, we will be taking our 16th and final SBR test. Your last POW is due on Tuesday, this is a change from what it says on the bottom of the sheet. It is a much easier POW and you have had plenty of time to find the answer and do a good write-up. Tuesday is also Step-Up Day to the high school and we will be having four short classes. Wednesday we will be going over the SBR test and POW. Please be sure that you have your textbook with you on Thursday, as it will be time to turn it in. Friday is your field trip, so lets hope that the rain has stopped by then.

Week of April 30th

Thought that we were all set for NWEA testing this week, but then on Friday afternoon, they said that we might not be ready to go. We will see what Monday morning brings us. We will either have testing in math on Monday and Tuesday or go on with Chapter 10 and finding the area of a circle. No Sunshine Math this week and I'll be passing out a new POW on Wednesday.

Week of April 23rd

Week of April 23rd: Hope that you have enjoyed your vacation and the great weather we have been having. Getting some rain this weekend, but we need it. Time to get things going again. Seven more weeks of classes: with a half day, Memorial Day and lots of other events to work around in the schedule. This week, I would like to finish up Chapter 9, by just introducing sin, cosine and tangent and preparing for the school wide state testing week the following week. I'll pass out a new Sun Sunshine math on Monday and it will be due on Friday.
