I hope everyone has a fun and safe Thanksgiving!

Week of 11/15

November is flying by!

This week in Course 2 we will be following the order of operations with fractions. There will be a quiz on Wednesday covering addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of fractions.

The 7th graders will also go bowling on Tuesday!

Week of 11/8

This week we will be taking our Trimester 1 test on Monday. This is another way that I can assess the students to see how far they have come from the beginning of the year.

We will the be starting chapter 5- Fractions! Remember Fractions are your friends and we will be seeing a lot of them for the rest of the year. There are some great practice games/quizzes on Classzone.com

In Pre-Algebra the students are finishing up chapter 4 by working on a project. They will be surveying other 7th graders and creating their own data displays. This project is due on Wednesday 11/10.

Happy November

I hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween!

This week is a bit odd for the 7th graders, they have Tuesday off and are going to see Alice in Wonderland at Hinsdale South on Thursday.

This week in Course 2 we will be doing a book review on Monday and dry erase board review on Wednesday. The Chapter 4 test will be on Friday!


This week in Pre-Algebra we will be looking at misleading graphs, scatter plots and lines of best fit. The students will begin a data project on Friday!
