Upcoming Topics

Hi guys! I hope the first couple days of seventh grade have gone smoothly for you! I just wanted to give you a heads up of some upcoming topics we will be covering.

Periods 1/2 and 3/4:
For the next two weeks we will be reviewing math skills from previous grades. These are pre-requisite skills that students should have in order to be successful this year in math. The skills will be: Order of Operations, Place Value, Rounding, Multiplying Whole Numbers, Long Division, Decimal Operations, Fraction Operations, Number Lines and the Coordinate Plane. In the next two weeks in class, students will be creating their own reference sheets for these topics. Once the reference sheets are complete students will bring them to math class everyday to refer to if they forget how to perform one of the skills. There will be a quiz on all of these skills on September 9th . Students will be able to use their reference sheets on the quiz.

Period 8:
The upcoming unit will cover Exponents, Exponent Operations, Negative Exponents and Scientific Notation. There is no tentative test date for this unit as of now.
