My oldest daughter coming home for Thanksgiving
PowerPoints below are: Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince, and Star Terk (the new movie) and Twilight.
New PowerPoints
For all you Twilight fans, here is my lastest work of art :) This PowerPoint is on geometry and covers most of what is tested on the CST's.
I am a big Star Trek fan, so in honor of the new movie I made a "full" book review using the New Star Trek movie as my theme. Hope you like it!! I have included some cool sound effects you can add to the powerpoint, I have found that the kids love them! (To insert sound: download, right click and save taget as. Then open the powerpoint and choose Insert from menu and select movie or sound, then sound from file. Choose from auto or when clicked, I use auto for these and your done). Just added Harry Potter another CST review on things we thought our students needed to know before the BIG test :)
CUE 2009Thanks for coming to CUE, here are my handouts. Using Manipulatives with the Interwrite I was asked to put my Interwrite templetes on my web page, so here they are. (These will only work with the Interwrite software) 7th NS1.2I nteger Pad with tiles.gwb Algebra Tiles Templete-signs.gwb pattern blocks with angles.gwb Graphic OrganizersFor all you fans of graphic organizers I found a great site that has tons of pre-made math graphic organizers, Math Middle School Graphic Organizers, check it out!!! PowerPoint from CUE: InterwriteTraining.ppt October 4, 2008 If you have a seventh grade PowerPoint or cool project and want to share with other teachers please email it to me. Remember by sharing what we make, we can make education great for all students. I have found some cool excel activities for this year, go to the student web page and look for powerpoints (bottom of the page) for links, sorry I am out of room on this page! Summer Vacation My cruise to Alaska was probably one of the best trips I have ever taken, the beauty was indescribable.
We use the Hole California Mathematics Course 2: Pre-Algebra.

Fun PowerPoints shrek.ppt(Bingo Geometry Review) Classifying Triangles spidy style Middle School Math Project: (EETT Grant) Updated Jan 2009We (the seventh grade math team) are using technology in our math classrooms to improve student learning and conceptual understanding of mathematics. As part of our grant we purchased Qwizdoms, Interwrite Pads, Laptop computers, and LCD projectors. We are using United Streaming, Brain Pop, MicroSoft Office as well as other online resources. We use the California Standards and Holt Mathematics: Book 2 as our main resources. Our team is working together to create fun and interactive activities in our classrooms to engage students. We are excited to share our progress and setbacks with other interested teachers. Our API is 761 (up almost 51 points from last year) and our school rank is 6 state-wide (up one from last year) and 8 in simular school (up 2 from last year, these are from last year as school ranking are not out for this year yet). See California Test Results for more information. Our goal is to reach 800 in the next 5 years :). We are focusing on using graphic organizers, or Thinking Maps, this year in an effort to help students take better notes. A great site for math graphic orgainzers is http://www.sw-georgia.resa.k12.ga.us/GO%204-8/4-8%20GO.htm. Vocabulary is also a focus and we working to help our ELA students have a better understanding of the language of math. I am going to be creating some math graphic organizers and will post them as they are created. We are developing technology activities for each chapter in the Holt Mathematics: Book 2 for 7th grade math. Our standards are at California Math Standards Grade 7 . All PowerPoint's will be available on this web site and movies can be accessed throughUnited Streaming. I will update this site as we progress through the year. CST Review (State Test)These activities were created by our 7th grade team (Angie, Kim and Sue) to help prepare our students for the upcoming state tests, we hope you find them helpful.
