Which topics do you need to review for tomorrow's mid year math assessment? - Look at an earlier post for the list of topics. Today's math test finally showed very strong proof reading and computation - Can you do it again tomorrow?

You should complete your writing assignment tonight. Tomorrow,  you will have class time to upload your work to pages and correct and grammar errors


Make sure you read over the 'non-ficiton' speech instructions  so that you can begin thinking about how you will prepare for Friday.

Last Week of the Calendar Year


You should all be able to discuss your stance and tell me the categories that you are using for your notes. (Based on the feedback from the lesson, many people were not doing this) I will be meeting with you all on Monday about your categories. Make sure you have SOME!

Next week is a 'big' week. Be ready to work hard! Below are guidelines for your non-fiction talk. Some people will  present Thur and some Fri.


Don't forget to do the comma online practice

Mid year assessment takes place on Wed. and Thur. We have covered a lot in Math this year:

  • prime and composite numbers 
  • squares and square  roots
  • divisibility rules
  • fraction, decimals, percent equivalents
  • mean, medium, mode, range
  • mixed numbers and improper fractions
