Class Update

Well, I can't believe how fast things are moving.  We are about to complete chapter 2 and most of our students need to practice adding/subtracting/multiplying/dividing integers.  We covered the rules in our composition books with a graphic organizer.  We are going to need to practice, practice, and practice more.  We have continued to practice exponents and radicals.  As a result, we are improving.  Today, we began working on Learning Upgrade which is our computer program designed for students to work at their own pace to reinforce skills.  Students must get a 95%+ to get a gold medal award.  Finally, we will be working tomorrow on a real-life application project using integers.  Expect to see photos of finished projects!
