Hello Middle School Families,
Hope you great Thanksgiving break. We have a lot coming up during these next three weeks before Christmas break. Thank you to all who have volunteered to drive to our Ice Skating field trip on December 19th. I'll be emailing you this week if we need a background check.
StuCo is selling candy-grams this week, beginning on Tuesday, from 8:05 to 8:13am. $1 for small and $2 for large. StuCo members will deliver them on the week of December 15th. Thank you for your support.
7th grade will have their next test on Thursday, and 8th grade will have a short quiz on Friday. 8th grade will then start preparing for the mid-term final. Please see all the details below.
Class notes
This Week in 7th Grade
We finished our unit on ratios and proportional relationships. Proportional reasoning will be a recurring theme for the remainder of the year, and well into next year. We have a lot to review and will have our test on Thursday. We will then squeeze chapter 6 on percent and finance in before the end of the quarter.
What are we learning?: How do we identify mathematical relationships?

This Week in 8th Grade
We will finish up chapter 5 on Inequalities, review, and have a short quiz on Friday.
Finals are up next. In math, we will review for over a week with many practice problems worth many points. I will give you the schedule so you can help your child keep pace so they don't feel overwhelmed. The final for math is at 8:30am on December 16.
What are we learning?: How do inequalities model real-world situations in business and science? How are they similar to equations?

Have a great week! ~ Rich Wuebbels
So, you talked during the whole lesson and now your math doesn't math.
Other Reminders:
Students must show all work in their homework journal to earn any credit.
Just remember Google Classroom is where everything is at. Your child's passwords are all on the first page of their planner so please feel free to copy those down and peek through their accounts often. Here is a video on how to navigate Google Classroom: https://youtu.be/qoOe3ir5iqQ
IXL grading is a little different from other assignments. A 90% "smart score" in IXL is equivalent to 100% in FastDirect. Anything over a 90% is worth up to one bonus point...they add up so I encourage students to try it (especially on the easier assignments).
Regular chapel can be viewed live on our Youtube channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3-agaQWl4BGu9bEAh1TbgQ, or on our Facebook page.
Each student's passwords are found in the student planner. Here you can find IXL, email, and DeltaMath
