Week 1 Review

We are off to a great start!!  Students are working hard and have a great attitude so far!  Below is a class by class summary of week 1 as well as a preview for next week.  Have a great weekend!

Algebra 1:  We completed the basic skills review this week to help us get our brains back in math mode.  We also completed lesson 1 in the first chapter which was a review of expressions.  Next week we will begin lesson 2 discussing order of operation.  We will have a quiz on Friday over lesson 1 and 2.

Geometry:  We completed the basic skills review this week and began reviewing for the Plan test that we will take in September.  We will continue to do Plan reviews while we jump in to Geometry.  Next week we will be doing a basic Geometry review before starting in the book the following week. 

Consumer Math:  We completed the first chapter this week!  During this chapter we discussed wages, salary, and commission.  Next week we will continue our unit on budgeting which is where we will spend most of our time this year. 

PE:  We will be walking 1 mile on Mondays and playing volleyball for a while since it is volleyball season and the net stays up during the season.  We will mix in other activities from time to time when possible.  Please make sure your child has tennis shoes with them each day because boots, flip flops, and sandals are not allowed.
