I'M BACK!!! :-)

Sorry we didn't have a blog post the last two days but I am back folks...yippie!

All classes are currently learning to write rules and equations from any given information. For instance: we now know that a rule for finding distance is that distance is equal to multiplying speed and time. Remember at this point when writing equations, we DO NOT use "X" to represent multiplication. A bonus "treat" will be awarded to the first student that posts on here to tell me why this is and also to the first student that can give me alternate symbols to represent multiplication when writing equations.

Reminders:


Students need to be sure to come to class prepared (every day) with their graph paper, pencil, book, and binder (and any homework or papers that need to be turned in). If students continue to arrive unprepared, a phone call will be made home and students will be issued a detention.

Today's homework:

Challenge: Lesson 3.2 p. 52-53 letters A-C
**Challenge's Test on Variables & Patterns is Friday, September 28th**
-Study Guides were handed out last Wednesday!-

All other classes: Lesson 3.1 p. 50-51 Letters A-C

Also: remember to...
~Redo any assignments necessary (you have one week to redo work in math)
~KEEP STUDYING THOSE MATH FACTS...you could have another timed test any day now :-) :-) :-)


Question of the Day: What is the distance in feet from the foul line to the head pin of a bowling lane, if 1/3 of the distance is 240 inches?

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! :-)
