Ratios, rates, and proportions.....still working with fractions, aren't we!! The added bonus is being able to use your calculators to calculate the unit rates and figure the missing part in a proportion.
The easiest thing to remember when solving proportions:
Find the pair and multiply, divide by the lonely guy!
Write the ratios out in words first - that helps get numbers in the correct position and shows you how the label will be written.
Always make sure you label your answers!

December 6-10
I don't know about you, but I am feeling overwhelmed with all the busy-ness of the month of December. Between all the schedule changes, appointments, shopping, and church activities I catch myself going, going, going!!
Math is still the topic at school for us though!! We are finishing chapter 5 and heading into chapter 6 - should be short and sweet. We should be able to finish chapter 6 before Christmas break - which means one more test this nine weeks/semester.
Don't forget the change in schedules Monday - Wednesday for the various chorus practices. I will also be gone on Wednesday for another technology meeting. Miss Brock and the substitute will have you covered!!

Monday - TEST and practice with decimals
