Hello Middle School Families,
Congratulations to the 8th graders who will be graduating this week. It's been an honor to be their math teacher and I know these group is going to go on to do great things.
Also, congratulations to all of the middle school students who put on a great musical Friday night. Both performances were fantastic!!! A special shoutout to Ava and Charlotte for running the lights and sound, to Madison for running the slideshow that you saw on stage, and to our leads Autumn, Lily, Liberty, Logan, and Faith. Thank you for sharing your God-given talents with us.
Yearbooks are in! We will be handing them out on Wednesday and using our elective time so they can sign.
6th grade has their last test on Wednesday, 7th grade has a project due, and 8th grade has finals this week. Check out the details below.
Class notes
This Week in 6th Grade
We have been studying one-step basic algebra. 7th grade at ILS is pre-algebra so this is a great preview of what's coming this August. The most important thing we will learn this chapter is how to show all of the steps in solving algebra problems. We also looked at what functions are. The chapter 7 and 8 test is Wednesday.
What are we learning?: How can we represent mathematical ideas using symbols?

We have been working on our final project: Running a Food Truck Business. So far we have made our business plan, designed a logo, and created the menu. For the final part, we will be building the trucks. The entire project is due on Thursday and is worth 200 points.
What are we learning?: How do we measure shapes, use math for financial purposes, and how do we use our knowledge of angles and 3D shapes in real-world applications?

This Week in 8th Grade
For the final, we have been practicing a lot. To prepare, there are 4 assignments which were all assigned last week.
Quizi 1 worth 40 points, due Tuesday at 8am
Quizi 2 worth 55 points, due Tuesday at 8am
Quizi 3 worth 60 points, due Tuesday at 8am
1 worksheet for 40 points, due tomorrow
I posted access to videos that go over every topic that will be on the test. Those can be found in Google Classroom.
The final exam itself is worth 80 points, which is 10% of the fourth quarter grade, and scheduled for Tuesday morning.
Finally, Wednesday will be the very last day that I'll be able to take any late assignment.
What are we learning?: How do you solve quadratic functions? What's the difference between the three types of functions we have learned about this year.

8th graders trying to use a Jedi mind trick to force graduation to happen this week.

Have a great week! ~ Rich Wuebbels
So, you talked throughout the lesson and now your math doesn't math.
Other Reminders:
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, rocket math, email, and math textbook codes.
