No upcoming assignments.
If you cannot make this date, please email Mrs. Bergonzi by Fri, March 6 to coordinate another time for your Defense. Defense scores will replace original Unit 6 Test scores. Defenses taken by March 13 will count toward the 3rd Quarter Grade. Defenses taken after March 13 will count toward the Semester 2 Grade. To qualify to take the Defense, students must complete the following:
- Correct all errors made on the original test using the attached test corrections handout.
- Complete and score the Unit 6 Defense Packet. Get help on problems that you continue to miss.
Test corrections and the corrected defense packet will be due your Unit 6 Defense date.

Percents Are All Around Us!
Percentages are a very important part of our world. They are used in sports, science, cooking, health & fitness, medicine, and many other areas.
Here are some interesting percentages:
Do a little research and come up with 2 more examples that we can add to the list above. Be creative! Find interesting statistics that involve the use of percentages.
Back to School Night is a time to visit your child's classes and meet the teachers. You will have 10 minutes in each classroom and 7 minutes to transition from class to class. See the bell schedule below.

NOTE TO PARENTS:
On Monday, students completed Goal Problems #2 related to solving ratio problems. This is NOT part of a student's math grade, but scores will be entered on Aeries to show students and parents how well a student is performing on this specific learning target. The paper will be returned to students on Thurs/Fri of this week and can be used as a study guide for improvement.
Scores:
4: Student work shows a solid understanding of ratio concepts (90% - 100%)
3: Student work shows a good understanding of ratio concepts. The student may have made minor errors, or needs practice in working on problems that have fractional parts, or practice in justifying one’s thinking. (80% - 89%)
2: Student work shows some understanding of ratio concepts. The student needs more practice (See online options below and/or come to PAWs!) (70% - 79%)
1: Student work shows little understanding of ratio concepts. The student needs help and more practice (See online options below and come to PAWs!) (below 70%)
Students who have earned scores below a “3” could build their understanding of ratios by:
1) Viewing the short videos below and trying the practice problems.
Visualize Ratios on Khan Academy: https://www.khanacademy.org/math/pre-algebra/pre-algebra-ratios-rates#pre-algebra-visualize-ratios
2) Retry Goal Problems #2.
3) Come to PAWs for more practice! Students will learn how to sign up for PAWs this week!
1) Complete Part 1 of your Career Mini-Poster (the interview)
2) Complete the Tape Diagram handout.
Students completed their first Goal Problems this week. Goal Problems will be used frequently in math class to help monitor how well a student is understanding the current concept. Goal Problem scores will be visible on Aeries, although the score does not effect a student’s overall math grade.
The Goal Problems are like practice test problems. Students will examine the mistakes that they made (in class on Thurs/Fri) to further learn the topic and target their practice for the Unit Test.
Generally, students may have low Goal Problem scores in the beginning of a unit (since students still have a lot to learn about the concept). As we get closer to a Unit Test, Goal Problem scores should increase to show a deeper understanding of the concept.
