Week of Nov. 5th - 9th
5th Grade:
We will be testing on factors, factor trees, prime and composite numbers on Thursday. The students will also be quized on the "G" gallon study guide. They will simply have to draw out the "G" and all its components! This will be an easy grade! They were begging me to quiz them on Friday. Continue to review multiplication facts!
6th Grade:
We really enjoyed our new "Hands on Equations" app for pre-algebra on Friday. I have walked the students through the app, and am encouraging them to work the problems on their own. Please encourage this! They said it was fun! I am sure that at some point it will tell them they have gone as far as they can on a "free" version, and if you would like to purchase a full version that would be great! I will not require the app to be purchased or worked for homework, because not everyone has an i Pad. But I do hope you will ask your child to complete the problem sets!
We will test on simple equations ( +, -, x, / ) on Thursday. The students will be expected to solve by isolating the variable. They should be more than ready for it! The sixth graders will also test on the "G" gallon study guide.
