Mid Nine Weeks

We have come to the mid point of the second nine weeks.  You should have gotten  your child's progress report at test score analysis night.  If you did not please contact the school for a copy.

Alg 1:  We are continuing work with equations.  We have moved from one and two step equations toe multi step equations and inequalities.  We will continue going through and computer generated program called Algebra School that takes us through lessons with examples and practice problems.  I feel we are making good progress.

Geo:  We just finished up working on slope and linear equations.  We struggled with this a little so we had to take a little more time that planned.  We will frequently review this concept to make sure we don't forget.  We are starting chapter four which deals with triangle rules.

Consumer Math:  Just finished up our unit on food and math.  We worked on calculating calories from fat grams, buring calories, and counting calories.  We will start chapter 7 Managing a Household next week. 

PE:  We are back in the gym and back to our normal routine.
