Two days in a row! Woohoo!

Here goes: today we checked our linear inequalities, and I would say that most of you have some serious redoing to do. Make sure that happens, since they will be on tomorrow's quiz. Then we started Project 7. You are creating a graph of a linear equations, based on a constant ratio.

PROJECT 7- Constant ratio


In this project you will create a poster with a graph of a linear equation.

1) Choose a realationship with a constant ratio. Example: 5 fingers on a hand.
2) Graph the linear relationship using only Quadrant 1. Label the axes, and mark at least 3 points.
3) Label one of the points, explaining what it means (i.e. 3 hands, 15 fingers)
4) Label the y-intercept, explaining what it means (i.e. when there are no hands, there are no fingers.)
5) Label the slope, using the rise/run. Explain what the slope means (when we add one hand, we add five fingers).
6) Write the equation of the line you have graphed. (In my case, y= 5x.)
7) Decorate the edges of your poster to reflect what the poster is about.

Grading:
an A poster will have followed all the directions above accurately, be neat and colorful, and reflect your understanding of linear equations.

Due: next Tuesday (December 16th.)

There you go! Have fun!

Graphing linear inequalities

Okay okay okay, I've been very bad about this. All I can say is I'll try to be better. So here goes...

Today we learned about graphing linear inequalities. Although it is a challenging skill, most of you seem to have gotten it pretty well. The first step is to graph the line, either with a t-table or by using slope-intercept. Don't forget that if there is an equal sign the line is solid, but if there is no equal sign, the line is dotted. Next, choose a point from each side of the line. Plug in the x and the y for each point and see which one gives you a true answer. The one that has a true statement at the end is on the side that should be shaded. The one that got a "no" is on the side that is unshaded. That's all. Not as hard as some of you feared.

Tonight's homework is to graph the following linear inequalities:

1) y > 2x+1
2) y<-3x
3) y<(1/2)x-5
4) y>(3/4)x-5

(Number 1 and 3 have equal signs, but I don't know how to format that on the computer.

Ciao!
Ms V

Linear functions and slope

So today we learned how to graph a linear function (which is an equation with 2 variables and no exponents. We graph this by using a t-table. Plug in the value for x and get the value for y.

For example:
y=2x
x y
-1 -2
0 0
1 2.

From this t-table you create ordered pairs and graph them. If you've done it correctly, they will lie in a line.
We also learned about slope. To find the slope, choose any two points on the line. If you count up (the rise) and across (the run) and divide (rise over run) you will have the slope.

For homework tonight you have 4 equations to graph and every period but Period 1 needs to find the slope.

The equations are
1) y=3x-2

2) y=x

3) y=x+1

4) y=1/2 x.

good luck and see you tomorrow:o)

Ms V

Relations and Functions

Hey all! So sorry about the lack of blogging. I guess the holiday spirit just took over. But I'm back on it now.

Today we learned about relations (a set of ordered pairs) and functions (a relation in which each member of the domain maps to exactly on member of the range.) We learned that you can tell whether or not a relation is a function in one of two ways. First, you can map the domain and range. If each member of the domain has exactly one arrow coming from it, it's a function. If any member of the domain has more than one arrow coming from it, the relation is not a function. The second way is to use the vertical line test. If a vertical line slid from left to right on a graph hits more than one point at any time, the relation is not a function. If it doesn't, it is a function.

So that's that. And today is World AIDS day, so take a moment to think about all the people in the world who have suffered with this terrible disease and then think once again about how lucky you are!

See you tomorrow!
Ms V

Benchmark is a-coming!

First of all, sorry for my absence on the blog. My daughter was sick last night, and I just ran out of time. But I'm back to myself now (and so is she). So- today we turned in success sheets (some of us), checked the practice problems, and worked on the new Benchmark Practice Problems. We also passed back the quizzes from last week (which could have been a lot better.) SO, tonight you are to finish the Benchmark Practice problems. That's a big deal, guys. Don't come in and tell me you didn't finish, because then you won't be able to ask questions about the stuff you don't get!

Also, get your success sheet signed if you didn't. And finish Homework 42 because I'm collecting it tomorrow. Redo your quiz, too.

If you're bored- check out this link: www.deathclock.com for a cheery little moment.

Project 4

Today we worked in class on our word problems. You began the posters which are due on Monday. Here's what you'll need on Monday: your worked out word problems (8 for Period 1 and Period 6, 10 for Periods 2,3, and 5). You 'll need your poster with two word problems. For each problem on the poster, please write out the problem, show the five steps to solve it, and include an illustration. This is a 50 point project, so please make sure it is done and ready to hand in on Monday when you arrive. Neatness counts, and so does accuracy (in other words getting the problem right!)

Get it done and enjoy the rest of the weekend:o)

Ms V

Age, Consecutive Integers, Phone companies, and Tickets

Hi all! The last two days have been spent in working on word problems. We've learned at least four different kinds of set ups. What they all have in common is the steps:
1) define variables
2) write equation
3) solve equation
4) answer the question
5) check your answer for reasonableness

Tonight you have a whole bunch (12) word problems to work on. At a minimum, make sure 5 are done (with all 5 steps) but the more you can do the better:o)

Have a great day, and come in tomorrow ready to ask questions about the ones you are struggling with.

Smile!
Ms V

Practice makes perfect (or at least a little bit better)

Hey all! Today we practiced a couple of things. First we began with practicing our properties. Such a little thing to lern, but they give people such a headache. Please study and learn them. Use the flashcards to help you study.

Then we worked on multi step equations and inequalities. Remember to solve, check, and graph all of them. Numbers 6 and 12 are extra credit, so if you get them wrong it won't hurt you, but if you get them right- wow, you'll feel so good about your brain:o) (and earn a few extra points). Finish the worksheet for homework!

Have a wonderful day, and remember tomorrow may be rainy or sunny, but there will be a new president-elect, and the world may start to change!

Ms V

Practice and fractionaphobia

Today we had a bunch of equation practice. Out of a list of twelve equations, you were asked to copy them down, and identify what kind of equation each is. Depending on the period, you have anywhere from 4-8 to do tonight.

It is important to note that you can have a fraction as answer. Don't fear the fraction, my friends. Don't turn it into a decimal or a mixed number or anything like that. Just leave it as a fraction, and I promise it won't hurt you.

All right. Tomorrow we have a little quiz- study 2 step equations and properties.

Have a great All Hallow's Eve Eve.

Ms V

Step Step Step Step

Today was all about the multistep equations, and turning them into two steps. There are four kind: Distributive Property: 2(x+3)=12, Combining Like Terms : 3x+8+2x=15, Variables on both sides: 2x+5=8x-9, and Negative Coefficients: 3-2x=7. The goal for each is to turn it into a two step equation, which is easy to solve.

Tonight we have five problems to solve:
1) 4(2n-1)-36
2) 12=2b-4
3) 6=5-2x
4) 3f+-2+4f=12
5) 5w-8=3w+6

Gppd luck!

Ms V

Y wants to be alone

Today we learned how to do 2 step equations. It's very simple- just do the +/- first and then do the x/ divide second.

Example

2x+4=16
-4 -4
2x=12
2 2
x=6 (Sorry- I haven't figured out how to do the dividing line in blogger. That is 12 divided by 2)

Don't forget to check your answer.

Period 1 is doing p. 425 (12-19) in the green book.
Period 2-6 are doing p. 172 (9-17) in the blue book.

Have a beautiful day!
Ms V

Lollipops and laundry

Today we learned about the distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac. Remember, it's like kids standing in line for a lollipop- everyone gets one. Don't leave anyone out, unless they're not in line. We followed that up with combining like terms. The analogy we used there is sorting the laundry. Don't forget to use your colors to highlight what goes together.

2a+4b+3c+5b+3c+a
Okay, first underline 2a and a with one color, 4b and 5b with another, and 3c and 3c with a third. Rearranging (using the commutative property) gives us:

2a+a+4b+5b+3c+3c

Now we can use the associative property to group the terms.

(2a+a)+(4b+5b)+(3c+3c)

Now we add-

3a+9b+6c. That's it.

Your homework tonight is the evens on worksheet 8-1, except period 6 who are doing the evens 1-12 and 16-24)

Thanks for a great day, guys. Now I'm headed home to catch up on some sleep:o)

Ms V

Running late

Sorry! No time today- must run to Disney on Ice with small children. Learned properties today. Homework is page 34....

See you all tomorrow.

Ms V

Writing equations and expressions

Today we learned how to write equations and expressions from words. We learned to color code: purple for the variable, green for the number, orange for the operation, and blue for the equals. After we underline, we write what the words mean above them, which paves the way for writing the equation or the expression. Remember, it's an equation only if there is an equals sign. Homework tonight is to do the back of the worksheet (1-7 Practice). Period 1-3 and 6 do only the evens. Period 5 has to do it all, due to a serious lack of listening in class today!

Hope tomorrow is a better listening day.

Have a great night!
Ms V

Yay! We did it!

Phew! The benchamrk is over, and we rocked. The percents as of now are Period 1: 69%, Period 2: 87%, Period 3: 88%, Period 5: 69% and Period 6: 59%. These may change as I scan the final answer sheets. I am so PROUD of you all. We did a fantastic job. We had only one Far Below Basic out of all five periods, and those who got Below Basic were mostly very close to being at Basic. We still have work to do- the aim is to get everyone into Proficient or Advanced, but we've got 5/6 of a year in which to do it.

So- the only homework for the weekend is to finish your stem and leaf plot if you didn't turn it in yet, and get those success sheets signed. And have a beautiful three day weekend- get some sun before it gets cold and rainy. We'll be ready to work hard on Monday!

Rock on!
Ms V

This is it!

Tomorrow is our first benchmark! Yeehaw! Don't be afraid- you all can do it. All I ask is that you do your best. Tonight you are to finish doing your review sheet and STUDY it. If you know everything on that sheet, you'll do well. Sleep well, and do your best tonorrow:o)

Ms. V

The benchmark is so close I can smell it!

Oh, maybe it's just the PE clothes someone left in my classroom!

Today we went over the benchmark review worksheet from Friday. For most classes that went really well. Unfortunately there are some students who didn't do it. It's pretty tough to know what you need help on if you don't do the work! So, please make sure you do tonight's worksheet, which is another practice sheet for the benchmark. The benchmark is Wednesday. Don't forget to plan to stay afterschool Wednesday if you think you'll need extra time. We are allowed to give you extra time for benchmarks, but it has to be on the same day.

Have a great afternoon, and study. And, Paul E. if you read this, make sure to do your new routine!

Ciao!
Ms V

More FDP

Hey there- sorry this is late! Today we went over last night's homework and cleared up some misunderstandings about the FDP conversions. We worked in groups to practice them. Tonight's homework is to do page 260, same section as last night, only this time do the evens. (I think it's 34-54).


Tomorrow we start preparing for the first Benchmark. Next Wednesday is the big day. Please don't wait until Tuesday night to start studying!

See you tomorrow
Ms V

Lots of pieces of cake

Today we talked about cake. A lot. As in...5% means we cut a cake into 100 pieces and ate 5. It's really important to visualize what fractions and percents and decimals are all saying, so that you know when they are equal. 1/3 means cut a cake into 3 pieces and eat 1, 1/3 % means cut a cake into 100 pieces, and then only eat a third of one piece.

We took some notes (Notes 15A) about special kinds of percents, like fractional percents and decimal percents. Tonight the homework is p. 260 (33-55 odd). Good luck!

MS V

FDP or is it DFP or FPD or...

Hi all! Today we graded binders and checked our homework. Once we did that, we took notes 14A on switching from fractions to decimals to percents and so on. The homework tonight is the FDP worksheet. Please use your notes to help you on the homework. Start to work on memorizing the triangle, because you'll need to know it for the benchmark, which is next week. Most of you are doing fabulously- you're definitely the best group of students I've had in my three years at John Muir. I have high hopes for you!

Hope you watched the debate, instead of cartoons or video games!

Ms V.

Catch up day

Hey everyone! Today was a bit of a catch up day. WE did warm-ups reviewing fraction operations. If you're still not getting those right, please come see me! We graded math journals, which I think is an easy A, but some of you need to work much harder on it. Then we finished tests, for those who hadn't finished on Friday.

The homework tonight is to do at least five problems from the fraction worksheet. (Worksheet p. 14). More can be done for extra credit. Don't forget- do it on binder paper, copy the problem, show your work, and write the answer in a complete sentence. If you get stuck, imagine the problem without fractions. Would you know what to do then? If so, do the same thing. And always always always check your answer to make sure it makes sense.

Tata!
Ms V

Following up

Hey guys- don't worry about where it says justify each step. Just solve, check and graph.

Thanks
Ms V

Testday eve

So tomorrow is the big day. Our first unit test. Today we reviewed inequalities, and spent time practicing for the test. We talked about how to study: choose topics you need help on, find problems in the book, do them and check in the back if they are right. If they are not, ask for help, look in the book, or look in your math journal. I'll be there in the morning if you come up with other questions. Study and then get plenty of sleep. you can do fine, you know! And tonight you're doing p.92 17-31 ODD.

Have a lovely evening!

Ms V

Hi Ho! Hi Ho! It's back to work we go.

Hey everyone! I missed you all yesterday- glad to be back today. Today we learned how to solve, check, and graph inequalities. Basically, it's almost identical to solving equations. The difference comes in the checking, where we have a choice of numbers for checking (anything that makes the solution true) and the graphing. Remember that anything with an equals gets a filled in dot, and anything without gets an empty dot. And that is basically it.

Announcements for today:
1) Test on Friday- covering everything that we have done so far.
2) Math binders/ math journals will be graded on Monday.
3) Don't freak out if something is confusing- come see Ms Vickery.
4) Go to the homework center for help- even if I am not there. There are always at least two math teachers there!

Have a beautiful day, my dears!
Ms V

Project day

Hi all! Today we got into groups and began work on our fraction posters. Four kids working on four problems. The rough draft should be finished when you come into class tomorrow. I will be at the District Office tomorrow working on textbook adoption,so tomorrow's job will be to complete the final draft. Remember, I'm looking for good quality, accuracy and 7th grade level work. Your poster is due on Wednesday (and all but Period 6 needs to turn in Classwork 8 on Wednesday also). A lot of you need to turn in your success sheets, too. Don't forget! And, yes, Florie, you should put a check mark or aa yes when you turn in the redos.

Have a beautiful evening, and make me proud of you tomorrow!

Ms V

Cut and paste

Today we took a pop quiz (extra credit). Some of you did an awesome job. Others need to study more. Once and for all -8 squared is -64. (-8) squared is 64!!!

We also worked on our cut and paste activity (Classwork 8). Many of you didn't finish and are organizing your strips this weekend. Come in ready to glue on Monday (Period 6 is not doing this over the weekend). The only other homework is to get that darn success sheet signed!

Have a blast and enjoy the warm weather!
Ms V

Once more, with feeling!

We are continuing to practice our skills. Today we worked on more equations, practice with fractions, and practice with positives and negatives. It's funny how much more fun things are on the whiteboard than on a worksheet! Tonight's homework is to choose five problems from 74-82 on page 701. Hopefully it's getting pretty quick for most of you. If it's still really hard, please ask me a question or two tomorrow. The benchmark is only two weeks away. Oh, and here's a little hint. It's entirely possible that we may or may not have an extra credit pop quiz tomorrow. You may (or may not) want to study for it.

Have a fab evening!

Ms V

Practice makes perfect

And so we practice, practice, practice. Today we worked with partners to practice fraction operations and equations. The most important step, I think, is to think before you work. " Am I going to do box arrow circle? Find the LCD? No mixed numbers?" you'll get it right if you'll slow down long enough to think about what you need to do. The mistakes come when you rush in and just do whatever. So, tonight, finish the partner worksheet (CW 7) and come in tomorrow ready to ask questions about what you don't understand!

Ms V

p.s. What did the acorn say when he grew up? GEE-I'M A TREE (Geometry- get it?)

Update

Here's the homework- I know it's too late to be of too mcuh use, because you all should be in bed by now! Anyway, it's p. 281 (23-31 odd) and p. 292 (16-24 even)

Goodnight!

Ms V

Multiplying and Dividing fractions

Today we learned to multiply and divide fractions. Lo and behold, it turned out to be easy.

Here we go!
Multiplying:
1) No mixed numbers
2) Before you multiply you have to simplify
3) Multiply

Dividing:
1) No mixed numbers
2) Take the reciprocal of the second fraction
3) Change the division sign to a multiplication sign
4) Before you multiply, you have to simplify
5) Multiply.

The homework, sadly, did not make it home with me, so if anyone is reading and can send me the homework page and problems, I'll post it. Otherwise, it's in your homework helper- and I did check today to make sure that everyone wrote it.

Have a great night!

Ms V

The return of the Quiz

Today's big event was the passback of the quiz. Lots of students didn't do as well as they wanted to, but we talked about how to use this quiz as a learning experience. Next time, let's remember to look for negatives, check your work, and slooooooooow down. You can do it. Remember, you don't want to keep making the same mistakes. It's much better to make new mistakes each time.

So today we went over the warm-up and the quiz and the homework. We didn't cover anything new, except that we talked about how to simplify fractions and how to deal with variables. Every class except Period 5 can redo their quizzed for a higher grade tonight. The homework is p. 275 (17-31 odd) and p. 279 (8 and 10). (If those pages are wrong, please email me- I've posted that from memory!)

Have a beautiful evening, do your homework and redos, and don't forget to get those darned success sheets signed! I don't want anyone to be stuck in detention!

Ms V

You have met your nemesis...

And then you realized it wasn't so bad! Today we learned how to add and subtract fractions, and it was pretty easy. Here are the five steps:

1) Do a factor tree for the denominators
2) Find the LCD
3) If you change the bottom, change the top
4) Add or subtract (borrowing if necessary)
5) Simplify.

SO, here's an example.

2/6 +4/9
6=2*3
9=3*3

LCD= 3*2*3= 18

2/6= 6/18 4/9=8/18
6/18+8/18= 14/18

14=2*7
18=2*3*3

Crossing out the 2s leaves us 7/9.

So here you go. Remember I am very proud of the learning you all are doing. Don't forget there's a QUIZ tomorrow:o)

Ms V

The end of equations as we know it...

Hi all! Today we did one last day on solving one-step equations. We also introduced one step inequalities in most classes. We will still be doing lots and lots of practice with one step equations. The time will come when you can't remember why they were hard. I have to say that I am impressed with most of you. You are doing one step equations with positive and negative fractions. That's big stuff!

Tomorrow we begin the brave new (old) world of fractions. Don't be afraid. We will get there. But remember- this is the last time you learn fractions. By this time next week you will be doing one step equations with negative and positive fractions, too. Woohoo!

Have a great night!

Ms V

One Step Equations continued

So today we checked over the one-step equations. Most of you seem to have understood how to get the answer, but some of you forgot to use the process I taught you in class. Remember that I am teaching you a process that will be helpful when you are doing harder problems. Pre-Algebra is all about learning processes for later. So hang tough, and remember to use your colors and follow the steps. I'm in Homework Center tomorrow if you need help, so come see me.

Tonight's homework is p. 76 (34-42 odd) and p. 82 (23-31 even)

Have a beautiful day!

Ms V

One Step Equations

Here we are, with me apologizing again. So sorry this is late and Friday's didn't happen at all. Anyway, today we learned how to solve simple one-step equations. We used purple to write the variable and make the roof over the variable side. Then we used INVERSE OPERATIONS (the opposite) to get the variable by itself. After we do the work and find the answer, we substitute the answer in and check to make sure it comes out equal.

Here's an example:
3+g=7 7-3=4 3+g=7
-3 -3 3+4=7
g= 4 7=7

Sorry I don't have the homework up. Check with me tomorrow if you missed it.

Hang in!
Ms. V

Multiplying Decimals and an apology

Hi everyone! Sorry I didn't manage an update yesterday- I was too busy with back to school night.

Today we learned to multiply decimals. The trick here is to use the blue pencil (or pen) to count the decimal places. Once you've counted them in the problem, make sure you have the same number in the answer. For example 1.34x2.5 has three decimal places, so the answer (3.350) has three decimal places. You get the idea. The other thing I really want you thinking about is whether or not your answer makes sense. If you're multiplying something that is bigger than 1 (i.e. 1.34) times something else that is bigger than 1 (i.e. 2.5) your answer should be bigger than what you started with. We'll keep talking about this in class. Don't be discouraged if you're a bit confused now; you can do it! i've already seen some students really improve, and it's only been 3 weeks:o)

Have a beautiful day, and don't forget to do p. 680 (1-8) for homework. Change the direction to multiply, and make sure to use the blue!

Ms V

Adding and Subtracting Decimals

Today we learned:
(Notes 7A) adding and subtracting decimals.

The rules are:
Adding: line up the places

Subtracting: 1) line up the places 2) fill in zeros 3) borrow if you need to.

We practiced adding and subtracting with positive and negative decimals.


Homework is Hidden Message. Period 1 does 1-5, Periods 2 and 3 do the whole thing, and Periods 5 and 6 do 1-6.

Have a beautiful night! See you tomorrow! Don't forget about Back to School Night tomorrow night.

Variables, Negatives, and Positives, Oh my!

Good afternoon:o) I hope you aren't feeling too frustrated today. A couple of classes had some trouble with staying focused and working today. I have every faith that tomorrow there will be greater focus and attention. In most classes, we got to notes 6A today- Comparing Decimals. BUT you're not doing that tonight. Tonight we are finishing CW4- 5-11 Evaluating Expressions. Remember you don't have to do all of them- just the 5 or 6 problems that you were assigned by your math family. Don't forget- you must use color and show your work. We're learning habits here, people.

Remember-
Addition= mountain
Subtraction= Box/ Arrow/ Circle
Multiplication and Division= Cat.

You all can do this! Put aside that you don't think you're good at math, and that you didn't like your third grade teacher (etc, etc) and just focus on what's right in front of you. You can do it.

See you Tuesday
Ms V

Thank Goodness It (Was) Friday

Hey guys- I know you're glad there was no new homework. Please make sure to do the redos that you need to. Don't let your grades go down this early. We took a test yesterday, and lots of people did well, but some of you tried to use the mountain for everything. Please remember that the mountain is for adding, box-arrow-circle is for subtracting, and the cat is for multiplying and dividing.

Hope you all have a fabulous weekend. See you Monday,

Ms V

We have conquered the integers!

All righty folks. As of today, you should know how to add, subtract, multiply and divide integers. Remember: adding is the mountain, subtracting, is box arrow circle, and multiplying and dividing use the sleepy cat. As long as you can keep those three things straight, you should be able to get every integer problem correct. I'm proud of all of the work you all have done thus far, and I know you can keep it up.

Tonight's homework is 5-6 Counting Down. Periods 1, 5, and 6 are doing only up to 44/22. Periods 2 and 3 are doing the whole thing.

Tomorrow we'll have a quick quiz to see if you've been paying attention:o)

Good luck and sleep well!

Ms V.

Addition Mountain and hiding in a box

Today we mastered adding and subtracting integers. We used the images of Addition Mountain and box arrow circle. In addition mountain, the positives and negatives fight over the right to claim the mountain. In subtraction, we keep the first number the same, change the subtraction to addition, and change the second number to its opposite. Then we revert to the addition mountain. The homework tonight is worksheet 3.3 (ALL) Remember, if you don't use your colors and draw the mountain, you won't get any points!

Have a great afternoon and get lots of rest- tomorrow is another day:o)

Ms V

Integers

Happy Tuesday! Today we learned about integers (positive and negative whole numbers.) It was a pretty easy lesson, I think, about ordering integers, finding opposites, and absolute value. Here's a brain teaser for you: What is ----------(-2)?

We checked supplies today and some of you have some shopping to do today! Don't be the last one to get them all in.

If you read the blog today, leave me a comment so I can see how many people are reading.

Bye for now!
Ms Vickery

Order of Operations- August 29

Happy three day weekend, everyone. Today we learned about the Order of Operations. The visual we used was a step pyramid.

+-/-+
Mult/Div or Div/ Mult
Exponents from left to right
Parentheses or other grouping symbols.

The homework is worksheet 1.4 There are twelve problems, out of which you need to do 10. Don't forget that number 3 has a typo and the dividing sign should be an addition sign. Use your colors, and show your work, and be proud of yourselves. This is the best beginning of a year I've ever had. I can tell that you all are ready to learn, and I'm thrilled to have you.

Have fun and stay safe.
Ms V

OOPS!

Forgot to include the homework! Tonight you're doing the evens on Practice 1.3.
Sorry!

August 28th- Exponents

Hey guys! Today we had fun learning about exponents. We learned that exponents are shortcuts for repeated multiplication. We also learned the three exponent rules:

1) 1 to the power of anything is 1.
2) Anything to the power of 1 is itself.
3) Anything to the power of 0 is 1.

Learn them, you never know when it may come in handy! Hope you enjoyed working in your families today. We'll be doing a LOT of that this year.

Have a fabulous day- the three day weekend is almost here. Don't forget, supplies are due on Tuesday. (2 pencils, something to color with, binder paper, math journal, math binder, and five dividers.) Questions? See me or drop me an email at Alison_Vickery@sjusd.org

Ciao for now!
