Science 7
Students took a practice rock lab test today. The rock lab test will be tomorrow, with the written test to be conducted on Friday.
7th Grade Math
Taught scale drawing, scale model, and scale factor. Homework: Lesson 7-4, pages 307-308. Problems 9-25 and 28-34. Mid-chapter test, quiz, and notes on Friday.
Applied Math
Lesson 51- Unit Price
Tests were handed back with the option to correct for those students who received a failing grade.
Since there has been a continuing trend of students not studying for math tests, rather waiting until the test to ask questions about how to solve problems they do not understand, a few changes to Math Tests are being made. Today marks the last day students will be able to make corrections to a test or quiz in Applied Math. Students will still be given study guides that they will be able to use on the tests, so it would benefit students to use these study guides not only as a practice test, but as a place to note explanations for solutions.
Today's Assignment: due Friday- As a review, students are to explain the process (steps) in solving and solve all practice problems for Lessons 41 (p.188) through 51.
