Week of DECEMBER 9 - 13, 2013
6th grade math - I like the tiles you made for me in class. Remember to look at the flooring wherever you go these next few days. On Thursday, I will ask for your report on what you observed. I hope you find at LEAST one really interesting floor.
Dylan found a really interesting floor pattern - a basketball court!
Wednesday evening - you are all so exhausted from your band concert, NO HOMEWORK, except to continue to look for floor patterns.
THURSDAY - I am sick in bed with the flu :(
Here is what you will work on during math period:

Geometry - Testing out of CHAPTER 5 tomorrow (Tuesday). We will review the results together on Wednesday.
A note about finding the value of square root expressions: no calculator necessary, use what you know about factors and do your best to APPROXIMATE the value (such as "It's between 18 and 23). That will give you enough information to solve the questions regarding Triangle Theory as it relates to SIde Length and Angle Measures.
THURSDAY - I can not meet with you today.I am in bed with the flu. During our math time, please look at Chapter 6. Add all new vocabulary to your reference section. Look at the chapter review (at the end of the chapter) and make a list of what is new to you. Andie - if you finish early, it's alright if you work in Algebra II. New skill - work on finding the value of square roots. See this link.
