Hi everyone,
Happy New Year! I hope that each and every one of you has a fantastic 2011! :)
I have had a wonderful Christmas--I'm sure likea all of you---have spent lots of time with my family, seen movies, eaten too much, stayed up way too late, and not gotten much rest, but is has been awesome!
7th grade exam grades will be shown on Wednesday 1/5. There were some really awesome grades! One person made over a 100....and they are in 5th hour. Congrats!
The first spiral of the nine weeks will go home Tuesday, January 11th.
Happy 2011 everyone! I'm looking forward to seeing everyone back at school on Wednesday!
Mrs. Serpas :)

Exam!
Hi everyone,
Way to go 7th graders! A little over half of the students that I teach came to help session today, I am so proud! I hope that it helped clear up a few more things for you.
Your exam is Friday morning, you will take it by section. Signs will be posted on the doors of the classroom. Please have a sharpened pencil and loose-leaf, I will have everyone's test folders. Remember, you must show your work either on the exam or loose-leaf AND it must be numbered. All final answers will be written on the answer sheet.
Good luck! I know you will do well. Please let me know if you have any questions, and have a wonderful Christmas!

Week of December 13th
Hi everyone,
What a cold and windy morning! Looks like a yucky day ahead. A great day to stay in and study. :)
I'm sorry the last week has been so crazy- Julia sick, test dates changing, computer issues/study guide key problems, you name it. We just have to make it all work!
6th grade: Ch. 5 Quiz (Sec. 1 - 4, adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing fractions) is Tuesday, 12/14. There will be only be a few division problems as we have just started that.
7th grade: Change in plans, again. Instead of posting study guide answers, I will give each student a copy of the (CORRECT) key in class on Monday. That will save us time, and we can get started reviewing.
Permission slips will go home tomorrow for the optional review session which will be Wednesday after your English exam. You may eat a quick snack/drink before we get started (you must provide this, I'm not!) if you would like. No food or drink in the media center.
Math exam is Friday morning. You will need sharpened pencils and looseleaf. That's it!
Have a wonderful week everyone!!!!

7th grade Math:
I will hold an OPTIONAL mid-term review session at school in the media center on Wednesday, December 15th from 10:15 - 11:15. Ms. Boudreaux has graciously agreed to help me with this. Students are dimissed at 10:05 Wednesday (immediately following their English exam). Students who wish to stay must submit a permission slip with parent contact information.
Pick-up will be at 11:15 in "big carpool" by the church office. If students need to be checked out earlier, please pick them up in the media center.
This session is not required in any way and is strictly optional. Students will work problems and ask questions. This is not a time to visit with friends and hang out. Any misbehaviors will result in a referral and the student will be sent to the office.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Slips will be sent home later this week.
Thank you!

The number does a handstand. The reciprocal of 4/5 is 5/4. Get it? The number does a handstand! :)
Good job guys, thanks!
week of December 6th
Hello all,
We're almost there...keep up the hard work! Lots of into to give you today!
6th grade: I am so excited about the program we have started! My class will be visiting the website http://www.firstinmath.com/ to access math games. Each time they complete a game, they will be rewarded with (virtual) "stickers." I will require a certain amount of log-on time a week for a grade, but this will be a participation grade, not a grade based on results. It is my hope that students will have fun doing something different, and also brush up on some basic facts as we move along. We started this Friday, and by Monday students must complete the four basic operation tests (addition, subtration, multiplication and division). Most students completed at least two of these in the computer lab on Friday. They are welcome to do as much as they would like!
Each student was issued a username and password. I will have access to their times, stickers, etc. and everyone will be able to view the sticker count of the class.
If students do not have internet access at home, I will need a note stating this (signed by a parent).
Optional Ch. 4 retest is Wednesday 12/8. Students will be tested on same material and grades will be averaged. I need to know by Tuesday 12/7 who plans to take the test.
Ch. 5 Quiz (sections 1 - 4) is Friday 12/10. All students will take this.
7th grade:
Study Guide part I due Monday 12/6
Study Guide part II due Tuesday 12/7
Spiral 14 due Tuesday 12/7
Study Guide part III due Wednesday 12/8
Ch. 5 Quiz Wedensday 12/8
*Study Guide answers will be given Friday 12/10
Yes, a busy week! Hopefully you have been preparing for this and not waiting to do this all at once---I do realize you have other classes. :) Study guides went home before Thanksgiving!!
Have a wonderful week everyone! Please email me if you have any questions.
