Week of Tuesday, November 12 to Friday, November 15, 02013
If you wonder why I wrote the year as '02013', go to this page and rad about it: http://longnow.org
It feels to me like I am on a countdown to the end of the trimester. Do you feel it, too? Have you accomplished what you set out to accomplish so far this year?
Looking ahead to this week:
6th graders - Today (Tuesday) work on IXL. You can work on WHATEVER skill you like! But you MUST practice for 40 minutes. Remember - I can see what you do in my teacher's report :)
Algebra - Your assessment window is now closed. Tomorrow, you will hand in your assessments to me and whatever you have accomplished is what will be written in the grade book.
For today, We are going to look backwards a bit. Look in your textbook. There are a number of pages that are teal in color and titles "Activity". Choose THREE from Chapters 1, 2, 3, and 4. Complete them today (whether at school or at home) and submit them to me tomorrow at the start of class. Have fun :)
For Friday, November 15, do these practice questions in Chapter 4:
Section 4.1: 42, 44, 46, 50, 53
and in performing transformations, do these (EK & ZF only:
q. 6 & 12
We are going to do a math buddies project, Algebrarians.
Begin tomorrow and over the weekend, design a polygon with multiple sides and coordinate points.
Draw a model for yourself.
On a sheet of paper, write only the coordinate points.
On Monday, these will be shared with your 'math buddy' in 6th grade. (I will be the go-between.) Your math buddy will create the polygon. In the meantime, design a transformation and translation of the shape. Once done, give the new coordinates to your math buddy and wait and see how they recreate your shape.
Make it fun and hard :)

And have a GREAT weekend!
Geometry - If you haven't finished it, read on in Flatland. Save 15 minutes of your math time today for exploring the 4th dimension that A.Square would like to visit. In tomorrow's class, show me what you discovered :)
For Friday (Nov. 15) - work on these practice questions on class:
Section 5.2 questions 9, 10, 16, 17, 23, 25, 26, and 27 and
Section 5.3 read p. 312 and mentally work through example 4, then do questions 10, 12, 14, 19, 20, 21, 24, 25, 27, 32, and 36
