6th: This week will take us to the world of integers. They will learn all about positive and negative numbers by playing a variety of games and other activities. In addition, they will work on polishing their word problem skills some more. There will also be time to work more on the order of operations.
7th: The end of unit 2 is upon us this week. We will take a test after looking one more day at dilations and finding the scale factors. By Wednesday we will have completed the unit, reviewed the key components of the unit, and will take the test. To end the week, we will begin looking forward to our next unit of geometry where we will find area/perimeter of various objects.
8th: The 2nd unit test is over and the kids did well on it. This week marks the beginning to another unit: equations. We will start with basic 1 & 2 step equations before translating word problems into equations.
Have a great week! Do you best and turn in your homework!
