Ok, here we go. Our next one is all about what we have been studying in Chapters 8 & 9

The topics are

Area & Perimeter of all 2 dimensional geometric shapes, including complex figures made up of a combination of other shapes.
Understanding and Solving inequalities.
Square roots and the Pythagorean theorem.
Box & Whisker Plot.

Please bring in your projects if they are all completed on Monday. If not you may bring it in by the new deadline which is MARCH 8th.
Please recall that the project was announced a month ago and students were expected to be working on it all month long.

Look for more directions in the file "Math7 Geometric Concepts Project.doc" in the Projects folder in SECTION Files at the bottom of this page.

The geometric concepts project was introduced to the students in class and the above document with directions was sent with the students. The theme of the project needs to be an activity or hobby that the student is involved in.  Students, please enjoy finding as many geometrical shapes as you can in real life. For all possible 2D & 3D shapes check out Chapters 8 and 10 in your Math Book.

Project due date is March 2nd.

Chapter 6 & 7

Topics

1. Operations with fractions
2. Word Problems using Proportions and Distance, Rate and Time
3. Simplifying expressions involving positive and negative exponents

DEFICIENCY Notices are mailed on FRIDAY, November 13, 2009

If the student receives a deficiency notice in my math class (Grades C, D & F) then they 

•  have incomplete or missed assignments or,
•  low test grades

If they need extra help they may arrange to see me after school. If considerable effort is put into getting the missed assignments completed, they need to see me out of class to have it graded.

Grade Reports for the First Quarter go home with the students tomorrow Friday, October 16.

Thanks to all the parents who visited our Math Classroom for Open House.

Please remind students to fix mistakes on last week's assignments for full credit. This is important for their own learning.

Please contact me by email and we can meet to address any concerns that you may have.

Progress reports are mailed during the week of Sep 7th. 

Thanks.

I suggest that you look up the definitions, figures, symbols in your textbook, google it on the web or use the links in the Section Links on this page.

You may either write it out in your class work book or type it up into a file on your computer and print it out. You may leave place for figures and symbols and do them by hand.

Try as many words as you can. We will complete it as we learn in class.

For Geometry, lookup Chapter 6 in the Honors text book (Structure & Method) and Chapter 8 in the Math7 text book (Concepts & Skills).
