Math 8 Class Update: Week of 8/12/2024

Hello Parents!
 
During this second week of the school year, we will be having a relatively eventful week. Due to last week's plumbing issues, students will first be finishing their pre-course test on Monday and then we will have our fall MAPS tests for reading and math on Thursday and Friday respectively. Even with all of this happening, throughout the three remaining class periods our students will spend in my classroom they will begin their annual mathematical journey with a study expressions and variables. We study these as a precursor to equations, and as a refresher from the short time we spent on this topic during their seventh grade year. During this week, I will also be focused on teaching students note taking, thinking strategies, and organization of assignments so as to help foster their success in the future.
