6th grade tests/7th grade test info

Hello all,

WOW - 6th grade did a WONDERFUL job on their tests- way to go! No one needs to get them signed (no D's or F's!). Please refer to an earlier post in regards to test corrections.

7th grade has a Chapter 1 Test on Wednesday, 9/4. I did not get review pages passed out as we only added two sections since the last test.

The test will cover all sections previously tested (sections 1 - 4) with the exception of vocabulary- no vocabulary on this test. The emphasis will be placed on the new sections - 5 and 6.

NEW INFORMATION:

I. 1.5 Equations and Solutions pg. 28
A. Use mental math to solve equations (ex. 1 pg. 28)
B. Check solutions of equations (ex. 2 pg. 29)
C. Write an equation (ex. 3 pg. 29)

II. 1.6 Variables in Familiar Formulas pg. 33

A. Students must memorize and apply these formulas: 
  Square: A = s^2 (side squared), P = 4s
  Rectangle: A = lw, P = 2l + 2w
  Distance: D = rt
B. Find perimeter and area (ex. 1 pg. 33)
C. Find side length of square when given area or perimeter
D. Use distance formula to find time, distance or rate of  
     speed (ex. 3 and 4 pg. 34-35)

We will review Tuesday in class for the test.

Have a safe and wonderful Labor Day weekend!
