Hi Grade 7,

Next Friday March 29th, we will have our unit test on Integers. Your study package is due before Friday. Earlier if you want more feedback from the teacher about how you are progressing.

For the test:

Half of the test will be WITHOUT a calculator (calculating smaller numbers) and the other half calculators will be allowed ( word problems and more complex values)

You should know how to add and subtract positive and negative numbers, and the rules and terms we have learned: zero principle, opposite integers, integer rules, and canceling out. There will also be word problems which we will practice more in depth next week! 🙂

Hi Grade 6!

The new unit that we are beginning is Multiplication and Division. This is our longest and most focused unit in grade 6. We will spend a month on this unit. To break it down for you, I have created an overview of the material you will be responsible for and what you need to have mastered or continue to work on mastering to be successful in this unit.

You will have multiple conferences with me throughout this unit to make sure you are getting exactly what you require for your needs, as we are all over the math continuum within this area and we all need growth and support in different ways.

ALOHA!!! Grade 8!

Pythagorean Theorem!!!!!

Your assigned personal homework questions (circled on your sheet) are due for THURSDAY!

Also, if you were assigned “workbook” practice on Integers, that is due Friday!

Here is the link from the video tutorial we watched today.

Hi Grade 6,

Here is your homework tonight!

1. If you received a marked test back (angles) please have it signed and returned for tomorrow!
2. You were given a handout today to practice what we learned friday and today (Page 49 and 50) on Factors, Primes, Composites, and Multiples! This is to be completed by Wednesday

Hi Grade 7!

Here is your Budget Project that you will receive this week. I will give you your jobs and salaries tomorrow. (Wednesday) We will get all set up with google sheets and a google budget folder… and go over the basics to get us all started.

Within the package you will see that I’ve added a timeline to help you plan out when to complete portions by. This will help you, as well as check-in’s with me along the way.

The entire project is due the week of June 10th, and YES you will have some class time to work on it and have conferences with me.

Hey there grade seven!

What a great afternoon we had yesterday, escaping from the math class! We shortened our time from 60 mins to 40 minutes because of STEAM fair preparation, but we still had fun solving clues and working together, and persevering to find the correct solution.  What I overheard at the beginning…”I can’t” “It doesn’t make sense” “there is no solution” was how I  knew you were in the right “uncomfortable” space for learning.

It was hard for me to #notstealyourstruggle…..but I did it…and more importantly YOU did it! Ending the class with lots of “We did it” “OMG, we got the answer” and “Can we do that again” shows me your progress and again…more importantly, YOU should feel better for getting there yourselves! Way to go!!! and thank you to the teachers that popped in to watch this exciting lesson and experience in action! You are always welcome!

I’m already thinking of the next Escape Room to plan for you!!! Stay tuned…..

Great morning yesterday grade 8!

You were engaged and on task as you went through solving four clues to “escape” the math class. Great to see that you used all and anything in the classroom to help you succeed. It was hard for me to step back and #notstealYOURstruggle. So proud of you!

Congratulations to all of you, escapees!!!

Take a look at our morning in pictures. Looking forward to making a new one for you soon!
