6th: We have finished up ratios and now move on to percents. We'll be practicing how to calculate percent of numbers. They will also be working on calculating tips, taxes, commission, and discounts. More word problems will be expected as well.
7th: We will be finishing up our look at rational numbers. We'll end with 2 step equations involving rationals before a test at the end of the week. They too will be expected to complete more word problems.
8th: The math is more algebra heavy these days. They are getting ready for the high school math they will be seeing come fall. We are moving towards calculating slope from two points or from the graphs. Be looking for more word problems.
Have a great week!
