School year 24-25










 The new brought new sixth grade students to room 12, along with 7th grade for the third year and 8th grade for the fourth year.  It is wonderful to work with students for multiple years. I know what they were taught the year before and it allows the class to move ahead quickly.  The new sixth grade students are eager and receptive learners.

Spring update

 We have been so busy for the past few months.  8th grade has solved systems of equations, learned exponent and polynomial rules, factored trinomials and solved radical equations. 7th grade has worked through geometry topics such as simple and complex area and surface area and perimeter for 3d solids. 6th grade has learned how to use integers, solve one step equations, worked with data and statistics and is now learning geometry vocabulary.   6honors learned about the coordinate plane, graphing and translating equations and tessalations.  

All the classes are wrapping up new work and exam review will begin after Memorial Day.

6th grade Shopping-percent and discounts

 The class created their own stores.  They posted pictures of five items.  Each was marked down by different percentages.  Their classmates shopped and had to determine the sales prices and total spent. 

(Each other class that that comes into our room wants to shop also!)
