8-4 & 8-7 - HOMEWORK CHECK is TUESDAY, April 26th....on 6.5 Pages 347-348 #1-9, 12,13,17
If students were unable to apply themselves in class to complete these and did not take on the responsibility to complete them in the evenings for homework, a three-strike rule was followed until the student and myself will call home to discuss a plan for how to start some good habits in practicing their math! :-)
If you are all done your text assignment:
Complete the mid-unit review for a quiz on EQUATIONS in algebra:
Page 350 #1-10
The quiz from 6.1 to 6.5 will be sometime during the week of April 18th.
From Tuesday, April 26 - Thursday April 28th -
6.6 Graphing with tables of value (T-charts) pages 356-357 #1-12, 14
6.7 Graphing linear relations (straight lines) pages 363- 365 #1 - 12
and the REFLECT on page 365 as an exit slip
WHEN YOU ARE DONE 6.1 to 6.7...........REVIEW FOR UNIT TEST!
Complete the UNIT REVIEW checklist and find examples to study from on 370
Complete the REVIEW Questions for the UNIT TEST on pages 371 - 373 #1-22 as needed.
Do the PRACTICE TEST on pages 374-375 # 1-8 (For your information, in the textbook the yellow tiles are positive and the red tiles are negative for question #2. For question #1, just shade in your x tiles and plus one tiles for positive and leave blank -x tiles and blank -1 tiles when you draw them!
I expect the Unit Test on 6.1 - 6.7 to be sometime between April 29 - May 4th.

*Students are working on algebra equations in the textbook.
*We had 2 practice quizzes in class when you got a 10/10 you got a sticker!
Quiz #1 Quiz #2
*Students worked with algebra tiles to play with the idea of balancing equations.
*Students considered the importance of inverse operations and doing BEDMAS backwards when working out equations. Two in class worksheets on 2 step equations Sheet A Sheet B
We will be working on a challenge -
Crazy Distributive property practice with answers on the back (handed out Apr. 11/12)
- you can practice this page of questions for 10 mins each night and check after each question is done!

Grade 8 Math Feb. 14 - March 4th
We are working on Chapter 5 in the textbook, Percents, Ratios and Rates.
The unit test on PERCENT, RATIO and RATES will be March 2 and 3rd!
Study page 307 for the six main types of questions.
Complete as many questions in the review pages 308 - 311 #1-34 as needed to review these concepts before the unit test on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week.....use your weekend and classtime wisely.
Complete the practice test on page 312 for extra practice!
Text 5.9 pages 298-299 # 4-18
Text 5.10 pages 303 - 304 #5 - 13
Homework is not for marks - it is not an ASSESSMENT OF LEARNING. Rather, it is the supported practice I would like students to complete in class whenever possible, when it is not completed in class, I then would like the support of parents/guardians at home to ensure that the students TRY each question in the assignment and parents/guardians can have their students write a note about what was tough about a question they couldn't get or what they weren't sure about in a particular question - rather than have students bringing back little to nothing completed after 4 days. The students will be assessed on the UNIT TEST coming up next week, so I would like for them to have as much practice before then as possible.
We have finished assignments on percents on pages:
pg. 246#4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 14
pg. 252 #3, 4 and then a worksheet on Ratios
pg. 259-261 # 1 - 12 inclusive problem solving and then a hand-in assignment on problem solving
We were assigned ratio questions in the textbook to COMPLETE by Wednesday, Feb. 16th:
Text 5.5 page 266 4, 5, 6 (out loud)
page 268 #14, 17 (on loose-leaf)
Text 5.6 page 274-275 #5 - 17 (we did #17 a) and d) together on Feb. 14th in class)
Text 5.7 page 284 - 285 #4 - 16
Text 5.8 page 291-292 #4-18
Students should be working on this in class with the textbooks and at home for 5 -10 minutes a night with their textbook online. Please see the top right corner of the blog for the link to the website and students need the log in username and password to get into the text.
Should we have computer lab time, please follow the following instructions:
Go to THE LEARNING EQUATION 8, click on NUMBER OPERATIONS, scroll down and complete the following 3 sections:
Ratio and Percent Problems
Combining Percents
Equivalent Rates
Fill out the sections and check them off on your THE LEARNING EQUATION sheet!

Here is a link to the worksheet we did in class (#1 & #2 are review for the test and #3, 4, 5 are enrichment type questions to challenge learners who already get the basics of ratio, rate and proportion). Thanks Mr. Kellough for sharing this!
