Jumping Over...Graphing Begins!

We finished our experiment today in class and will begin graphing our information tomorrow. As well, we will be introduced to some new vocabulary words for Variables and Patterns that will help our understanding in mathematics throughout the remainder of the year. Our class will also conduct a very short discussion of how we feel we did working in our groups yesterday and today (Did we stay on task/focused?, Did we listen to each other? Did we follow directions well? Did we get along? Did everyone complete their jobs effectively?, etc...). I ask the questions, what went well, didn't go well, and could have been better (for next time)? Feel free to throw out some ideas, thoughts, and/or feelings here to get this conversation started.

Today's homework:
1~p. 7 questions B + C; all questions must be restated in the answers and answered using complete sentences (at all times, unless otherwise specified by me).
2~Skills Test (WITHOUT USE OF A CALCULATOR OR ANYONE ELSE'S HELP)
3~KEEP STUDYING THOSE MATH FACTS...you could have another timed test any day now :-) :-) :-)


PARENTS: OPEN HOUSE IS THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 6TH FROM 6:30-8:30 P.M. HOPE YOU CAN MAKE IT!!! :-)

Now for the Question of the Day: A chukker in polo is a period of play that is 7.5 minutes long. There are 8 chukkers in a game of polo. How many chukkers are left in the game after 45 minutes of play?

Good luck my savvy students!!! Remember, the first student to answer the Question of the Day correctly will get a small prize from me the next day! :-)
