This week we began our study of Unit 2: Rational Numbers. Students have learned what integers are and how to calculate absolute value. We also spent time relating integers and absolute value to real-life scenarios. As of Wednesday, the 26th, students should have already completed and checked Part A of the Unit 2 study guide. Monday and Tuesday of next week we will begin graphing on the coordinate plane.
This week students are also getting their Unit 1 tests returned to them, so look for theme to come home. Jag Academy on Thursday and Friday will be spent going over the test for those students who did not show mastery on the essential standards.
Next week also marks the halfway point of the semester, so it is time to take midterms. Midterms will be given on October 3rd and 4th. L.A. and Science will be given on the 3rd and Math and Social Studies will be on the 4th. The math midterm will cover all of the unit 1 material again as well as concepts covered in Part A of the Unit 2 study guide. Two grades will be given from the midterm. The unit 1 concepts will result in a test grade that can replace the original unit 1 test grade if needed, and the unit 2 concepts will result in a quiz grade. Jag Academy next week will be used school-wide to prepare for midterms.
