Update: Week 7

Hello to all,

Algebra 1 - took a quiz on tuesday and I was less than excited about the quiz grades. We are in the begining of the year and have not gotten into the more difficult chapters. We have covered adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing rational number which include decimals, frations, integers (both positive and negative) and have come to find that some of ours students rely only on their calculators to do simple math functions. We are going to be reviewing on friday for a retake that I am going to give on Monday during the class period. This retake will not replace their original score, if they would like to take the retake on Friday then each student would need to come to 3 tutoring sessions between today and next Friday.

Calculators - we are now in a section where calculators are imparitive to have. All that is needed is a scientific calculator, that does roots and basic functions.

Physics - did a lab today, we have nice enough weather that we were able to shoot off the rockets on the football field and make some time and distance measurements. Because of the nice weather we had to postpone the quiz that physics was supposed to take on Friday to next week.

Have a great week!

Mrs. S
