Week of 2/19

Course 2 students are finally wrapping up chapter 7. This has been the longest chapter for them and we have covered many topics that have been building upon each other. Tonight they will have to do the odds in a review packet. I recommend that if they have lower than a C in class that they should do the evens as well to help review for the test. 

Pre-Algebra students are cruising through chapter 8 percents. There will be a quiz tomorrow over converting fractions, decimals and percents as well as using is/of = %/100 to solve problems.
