WOW! Can you believe there are only 2 more weeks until EOG's. 10 instructional days!
6th: Today in 6th grade we covered the concepts and rules for reflections and rotations in a plane. Students will need to do the evens on their worksheet for HW. We will have a quiz tomorrow on all 3 types of transformations (Translations -Slides, Reflections -Flips, and Rotations -Spins). Please encourage them to study the rules in their notes! We will go over HW before the quiz for any last minute questions.
7th: This class was given back their Tests from Friday today. Anyone who needs to stay for Test Corrections may stay this Friday after school. If other arrangements need to be made they must be made ahead of time! Students also had the chance today to get a glimpse of what they may see on the EOG by looking on the NC DPI accountability website. http://www.dpi.state.nc.us/docs/accountability/testing/eog/2003scstestgr7mathtis.pdf We read together parts of the information and I encouraged students to look over each objective from the Standard Course of Study http://www.learnnc.org/scos/print.php?scos=2004-MAT-0007 and pick two of the goals that they felt they could work on before EOG days come. Students are encouraged to study these two goals independently over the next week and come to me with any questions if needed. We will do EOG review all next week. Here are some sample problems to get them started. http://www.dpi.state.nc.us/accountability/testing/eog/sampleitems/mathprevposted
8th: Both 8th grade classes got the quizzes they took on Friday back today. Please be sure they look over any problems they miss. We will have a Common Assessment Test on Friday!! Both classes talked today about real life uses for independent and dependant variables, slope, y and x-intercepts. They will need to complete the worksheet we started in class for HW.
