 Wow only two weeks until exams.  This year has flown by.  

Next week we will be attending DNOW.  Make sure you send in your $10 for t-shirts. 

Next week in Pre-Algebra we will be continuing with multi-step equations.  I told the students today that this is what we will finish out the year on.  Their exam will cover everything we learn from here on out.  


Sixth grade is finishing up our Geometry section next week.  We will then start multiplying and dividing fractions.  Their exam will cover Geometry and multiplying and dividing fractions.

 What a crazy week.   This week we have covered lots of new topics.


6th grade is working on fractions.  We have learned the difference between an improper and proper fraction.  We have learned how to make an improper fraction into a mixed number and a mixed number into an improper fraction.  Next week we will finish up with comparing fractions and making equivalent fractions. 


Pre-Algebra is learning divisibility rules for 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, and 10.  We have also learned how to make factor trees to help find the greatest common factor of numbers.  Next week we will finish up with Chapter 4 and then move on.

 What a fast week.  


6th grade is still working on division.  Both long and short.  If your student is struggling with division please go to khan academy and have them review.  They will be having a test next Thursday on division. 


Pre-Algebra learned about mean, median, and mode this week. They also started solving one step equations involving decimals.  They will also be having a test next week on Thursday.  


I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

 Wow the weeks are flying by.  


This week 6th grade had a test on multiplication.  They did well for the most part.  Some of them need to work on multiplication facts still.  We are now starting division.  I have told them if they know multiplication facts it will make division easier.


Pre-Algebra finished our chapter on one step equations and inequalities.  They had their second test today.  Next week we will be working on mean, mode and median.  We will also be solving one step equations involving decimals.  


As always, thank you for allowing me to be a part of your students life.
