Another Week Down

The transitions have been getting easier each day. Most of the students have adjusted to their teachers and the expectations of each. We spent time this week learning about the problem solving process, divisibility rules and prime factorization. Students should be practicing their new vocabulary as they are given along with their divisibility rules. We made a foldable in class that will assist their studying.

Homework for 8-28 through 9-1:

Monday: Complete P. 20 - 21 #11-37 odd, #40, #41, #48 - 54 all

Tuesday: No homework - we introduced order of operations today.

Friday: Took a chapter quiz today over lessons 1-1 through 1-6. No Homework.
