In class we will be completing various Closure activities, so students have the opportunity to reflect on what they have learned during this chapter.  Students received a "working Study Guide" on Thursday, September 11th which is to be completed by Monday, September 15th. This Study Guide has prompts that are similar to questions they will see on the chapter test. Students also received an "informational Study Guide" that includes a list of topics and lessons to be reviewed in their CPM book. Students should begin studying for their test by looking over their study guides, warm-ups, handouts, and notes in their math notebook. 

Weekly Review:  No Weekly Review this week.

Coming Up:

Monday: Maintenance Monday. Ch. 1 Study Guide due today.  IXL due Monday by 9:00pm.

Tuesday:  Review for Ch.1 Test.

Wednesday: Ch. 1 Test. 

Thursday: Review Rounding and Place Value of numbers. IXL Practice.

Friday: Begin Ch.2: Lesson 2.1.1
