Practice Makes Perfect!!!

6th: Today in class students took a quiz on Multiplying and Dividing Fractions and Mixed Numbers. They were also given progress reports showing missing work. All missing work must be turned in by the 26th to be counted for the quarter. Many of them already turned in work today that had just been hiding in their binders! No Homework today!
7th: Students were given back the quizzes that they took on Tuesday with an updated progress report. If they have missing work, they will need to have these progress reports signed by a parent. All missing work must be completed by the 26th! In class we started talking about Simplifying Mathematical Expressions using Combining Like Terms today. They will need to complete the odds on the Edhelper worksheet for HW.
8th-2nd block: Today in class we did more practice with Solving Two-Step Inequalities. Students will need to complete evens on the worksheet for HW. Students were given an updated progress report. Missing work must be completed by the 26th!
8th-4th block: Today students took a requiz on Multiplying and Dividing Polynomials. Student will be given these quizzes back along with a current progress report tomorrow!
