Mathematics
Algebra:
Students are learning about Systems of Linear Equations (and Inequalities) and how to solve them in 3 ways. We're wrapping up Graphing through a Ski Resort Project and will be moving on to Substitution. This chapter is a great way to review all of the graphing and equation skills that we've been working on all year.
Pre-Algebra:
Students have learned how to find slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines, how to graph horizontal and vertical lines, as well as reviewed Proportional Relationships and Unit Rates (a 7th grade standard) to prepare for more graphing!

Writing:
Students selected a word for the year as a focus and created an anamograph. Also, we are having our writing celebration on Friday. We will begin exploring informational writing next.
