Well the first day of school is finally upon us! In just a short time your 6th graders will be transitioning from class to class at the middle school for the very first time. I am so excited to help them and support them through this transition. As far as a weekly update for this short two-day week, we will simply be covering expectations and procedures for miscellaneous areas of the school, as well as in our math classroom. Friday, we will begin content, covering the vocabulary for Chapters 5 and 6 (Multiplying and Dividing Fractions). There is no ticket to test or quiz this week. |
Looking ahead at next week, we will dive right into the basic (2.0) skills of Multiplying and Dividing fractions. We will be covering improper fractions, mixed numbers, and reciprocals during the week next week. Students can expect their first Ticket to Test as homework on Wednesday (due Friday), and their first weekly quiz on Friday. Remember, this Ticket to Test must be completed with 8 out of 10 correct in order to take the weekly quiz.
