The Universe is a Really Big Place!


Students in first period created scale drawings of the solar system. We realized how vast the universe is!
First period students are finishing their chapter on percents (test today!). We will be working on geometry next week.
Students in periods 2,3,4,5,6 are finishing addition & subtraction of fractions, and will have their test on Wednesday. They will be starting geometry. Students will be creating a flashcard for each geometry vocabulary word. We will start this for homework Wednesday. Students will need about 45 notecards for this task. (They
not be asked to create 45 flashcards in one night!)

Super Hero Day!

The math department had fun participating in student council's super hero spirit day!
(It's hard to tell in the picture, but the ties for the capes are ribbon that looks like a ruler, or measuring tape. Thanks, Mrs. Enzbigilis!)
