Hi everyone,
I hope that you have a great weekend planned! Just a few reminders about the upcoming weeks. Terra Nova testing will be Monday through Wednesday for 6th and 7th graders. Regular schedule will resume on Thursday, April 22nd.
6th grade- we are continuing work with one-step equations next week (Chapter 7). Next test will be TBA (will not be next week). Spiral due Friday, April 23rd.
7th grade- LAST TEST of the nine weeks will be Monday, April 26th. The review sheet was passed out before Easter, please refer to it for more information. Test covers Chapter 7, sections 1-4 and 6 - 7. Impress me with your knowledge on this test! Spiral due Friday, April 23rd.
7th grade math exam will be Monday, May 10th. I will hold an optional review session after school on Friday, May 7th until 4:45. More information will go out closer to that time.

Week of April 5th
Hi everyone,
I hope that you had a wonderful Easter break with your family! I had a great week off, it flew by.
We are really down to the grind now, progress reports go out next week! I was disappointed in the recent spiral grades in both 6th and 7th grade. Both of these spirals covered multiplication of fractions and mixed numbers, and less than 7 people out of 92 students made a 5/5. Due to these poor grades, tomorrow's spiral will also cover this topic. I worked examples on the back of the spirals, and will do the same tomorrow. It is is crucial that students in each grade master this topic (many 7th graders made mistakes with their signs). If you are still struggling with this, please come see me at lunch, or after school, or ask someone else for help. Spirals will be due a week from tomorrow, on Tuesday, April 13th.
6th grade: test this Friday, a review sheet will be sent home tomorrow after the field trip. The week before break was a little crazy as I was out sick one day, and Friday's class was only 15 minutes due to alternate schedule and Stations of the Cross. This test will cover simplifying expressions and equations, using distributive property, and identifying parts of an expression. We have covered ALL sections that will be on the test. This is a big one, so start studying!
7th grade: test this Friday, review sheets went home before Easter break. A chapter test will be given a week from Friday, more information to come.
Terra Nova, standardized testing, will be given the week of April 19th on Monday through Wednesday. Please do your best to attend schools these days. Testing will be finished by 1:05 on these days, please make appointments after this time on those days. We will back on regular schedule by Thursday, April 22nd.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email me.
Have a wonderful week!
