All Classes began taking the Edutest Benchmark Exam online yesterday. Any 8th grader who did not finish will need to do so on their own time before Monday 4-28. 8th graders who are going to the beach, you will have to finish at home or if you do not have internet access, you will need to plan a trip to the library. 8th graders who are not going to the beach, you will have some time in labs on Thursday and Friday, but if you do not finish then, you will need to finish on your own as well. 6th and 7th grade classes will have another period to finish Edutest here at school on Thursday.
6th: Today in class we began talking about basic geometric figures. today we covered quadrilaterals. We will discuss measures of and how to find area of quadrilaterals tomorrow. Students have a HW sheet tonight that is a review from Friday's lesson on transversal lines. We will move onto triangles on Friday. Reminder: Friday will be test correction day!!
7th: Today in class students began taking the Iowa Algebra Aptitude Test. This is simply a standardized test that allows us to better place your student for next year. If an Algebra 1 class is offered at SEMS, this test will be part of the criteria used for placement. This test is not being used as part of the grade for this quarter in my class and is not a test that students could have studied for. We will finish this test tomorrow hopefully and finish edutest on Thursday, then go over both test on Friday. There is no homework for 7th grade this week.
8th: Both 8th grade classes were given back quizzes from Friday and we were able to go over the correct answers. Students will need to study these quizzes for their next test! No HW. Beach trippers, happy packing! Everyone else, see you tomorrow!
