February 21

Welcome to a new week!  I'm sitting here at the hospital with my mother, knowing that you are all cooperating and working hard for my substitute.  I really appreciate your patience as I help my mother through this tough period, knowing that she will be here for a long time....

There are a lot of you that have been absent (I'm assuming out sick) and have a lot of catching up to get done.  Remember, you can always look for your homework assignments on this blog and/or on PowerSchool in order to stay caught up with your work.

Monday - review
Tuesday -test on chapter 10
Wednesday - begin chapter 11 on perimeter
Thursday - area of squares and rectangles
Friday - area of parallelograms

Most of the assignments in chapter 11 are going to be worksheets.....I know how much you enjoy worksheets rather than assignments out of the book.  Just something to look forward too!!

Are you ready to move on to geometry?  We will be ending chapter 8 this week and will be starting a lot of work on geometry concepts.  Make sure you have your calculator with you at all times!

We should have a fairly smooth week, unless another storm comes in as predicted.  Snow day????

Monday is a review followed by a test on Tuesday of chapter 8 - statistics!!
Wednesday is a review followed by the third Common Assessment on Thursday and Friday.

Hope you are prepared for tests this week.  Please come see me for extra help if you need it on any of the material we are covering.
