• Standard Math: We will continue teaching and learning AKS 3b - construct two-step algebraic inequalities with rational numbers to solve problems, and graph and interpret the solution based on the realistic situation that the inequalities represent.

The Unit 2 Test on Expressions, Equations, and Inequalities is scheduled for Thursday, October 

31, with a retest on Friday, November 1.

As a reminder, students should complete at least two iReady Math My Path lessons every week to strengthen their skills in Math.  Additionally, students must review notes and examples given in class daily and utilize the helpful resources on their eClass Math course page as well as www.tutor.com/gcpl for additional support.

• Accelerated Math:  This week students will be working on the following standards:

  • • • • • • AKS 4.f - Students will solve everyday problems involving scale drawings of geometric figures, including computing actual lengths and areas from a scale drawing and reproducing a scale drawing at a different scale; informally connect scale drawings and similarity.

            • AKS 4.l use proportional relationships to solve multi-step ratio and percent problems presented in applicable situations (e.g., simple interest, tax, markups and markdowns, gratuities, and commission)

The Unit 3A Test on AKS 4. f  and AKS 4. l is scheduled for November 6, with a retest on November 7.

• Social Studies: Students will continue working on Unit 4 this week, focusing on the Governments of SW Asia (AKS 45B & 45C). Lesson objectives for this week include analyzing the similarities and differences in presidential and parliamentary democracies and identifying the governments of Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Israel, and Iran. 

Students are encouraged to review vocabulary throughout the unit continuously.

• Language Arts: 

• Life Science: AKS 2B: Engage in argumentation from evidence that show understanding of how the functions of the Cardiovascular, Excretory, Digestive, Respiratory, Muscular, Nervous, and Immune Systems interact with each other to carry out life processes.

Students will take an exam over AKS 2, 2a, 2b on Thursday, October 31st. 

Thank you parents for your continued support!
