In math this week we have been working hard on factoring, least common denominator, greatest common factors and prime factorization. We started off by taking a review test of what we did last week. After grading it, I noticed that we still needed to review these concepts. I have attached worksheets to the back of the test. These worksheets will be due by Thursday (Dec 15) of this week.
Next week we will continue to move on to adding fractions.
This week we will begin taking a practice writing test in the computer lab. This practice test will simulate exactly what the testing format will look like. This is a great opportunity for our students to become familiar with this format before the big Writing Test which will be January 30 or 31.
This Wednesday we will begin working on a new vocabulary format. Each set of words will be passed out on Wednesday and then tested on Tuesday. Each week students will watch a vocabulary rap as a class and then have a worksheet packet that will be due on Tuesday, so that they have the packet to study from all week long. You can expect to see this same format when we return in January. Be sure to have your child study all week long with a big review on Monday nights.
Again please contact me through e-mail if you have any questions. eretzer@washoeschools.net
