Students in 3rd period math should be working on their data project, which is due Friday, October 5.  Next week we will also be working on factors and multiples.

Students in periods 1, 2, 4 and 6 have been working on area and perimeter.  This ties in with the backyard deck/pool project they have been working on in STEM.  Next week we will cover scale drawings (also part of the STEM deck/pool project!) and mean, median, mode and range.

Enjoy the beautiful fall weather!
