Week 7

6th Grade

This week we will be exploring negative numbers in equations. We will be learning how to apply our strategies on how to solve equations with negative numbers.

7th Grade

This week we will be reviewing and testing on negative numbers, fractions, and order of operations.

8th Grade

We will continue reviewing and testing on linear equations, and solving for two linear equations simultaneously

Week 6

6th Grade

This week we will continue exploring negative numbers and continue into order of operations.

7th Grade

This week we will continue exploring negative numbers and continue into order of operations. When we have a good understanding of what a negative number is and how they work within the basic four operations, then we will explore how they work in Fractions and decimals.

8th Grade

We will continue exploring linear equations, and solving for two linear equations simultaneously . We will use substitution, elimination anf graphing to solve. We have already covered graphing and substitution. This week will be used to reinforce graphing and substitution and exploring elimination.

7th Grade

This week we will be exploring negative numbers. When we have a good understanding of what a negative number is and how they work within the basic four operations, then we will explore how they work in Fractions and decimals.

8th Grade

We will be looking at and exploring linear equations, and solving for two linear equations simultaneously . This is where we will have two linear equations with two unknowns and use substitution, elimination or graphing to solve.

Week 4

6th Grade

This week we will be exploring negative numbers. As we have a good understanding of what a negative number is and how they work within the basic four operations, then we will explore how they work in expressions and equations.

7th Grade

The first part of the week we will review and take a test on factoring, finding the GCF and the LCM. the second part of the week we will be exploring negative numbers. As we have a good understanding of what a negative number is and how they work within the basic four operations, then we will explore how they work in expressions and equations.

8th Grade

The first part of the week we will review and take a test on the laws of exponents. Then we will be looking at and exploring linear equations in two variables. This is where we will have two linear equations with two unknowns and use substitution elimination or graphing to solve.

Student Council

Remember student council elections are this week. Students that are running can only have two posters. The posters must be approved before they are posted the hall.

Week 3

6th Grade

We will be finishing up our chapter on expressions and equations. We will be graphing linear equations by picking an x coordinate and solving for the y. Then we are going to have a day for review and then a test on Thursday.

7th Grade

We will be finishing up chapter one this week. We will be exploring how to find the least common multiple by using prime factoring. Then we are going to have a day for review and then a test on Monday.

8th Grade

We will be finishing up our  chapter on the Laws of Exponents. We will have a review day on Thursday and a test on Monday.
