This week in Seventh Grade Math…
**We are starting fresh this week with Accelerated Math for trimester 2. Students should have 2 objectives mastered. If they do not, they need to work outside of class so that they don’t get behind later!
Red and White: This week we are finishing up our fractions chapter with dividing fractions. We will be having our “big” fractions test on Friday, so we don’t have to worry about it after Thanksgiving break. We will be reviewing all week in class.
Blue: Tuesday we will be reviewing for our fractions test that is on Wednesday. After that we will start our Geometry Chapter.

**Just a reminder that progress reports go home today.
Here a few symbols that may appear on your child’s progress report for Math: “X”..means that your child was excused from this assignment, and it was not counted for or against them; “NC”…means that your child did not receive credit for this assignment (a zero) because it was not turned in; “**”…means that assignment has not yet been entered into my gradebook or I’m waiting for your child to turn it in due to absence.
No student’s participation grade has been entered in yet. That will be put in at the end of the trimester.
