Happy "Friday"

Hey class!  It was a short week, but a good one.

For homework:

Please read.  No, you do not have to fill out a reading response, but you should push yourself to be your best possible self.  Set aside some time and sit down with a good book!

Literary device booklets are due on the Tuesday you return back to school.  :)

You have a vocab quiz for WW13 on Tuesday -- your WW13 will also be due.

Have a fabulous five day break with family and friends :).

Happy Monday!

Hey class!

You have two very large tests coming your way, so please make sure you are using your free time wisely and are studying :).

Here is your homework:

Math: POW #9 due Friday.  I will now start giving two problems each week.  For those of you who want to push yourself and have more rigor in class, please challenge yourself to complete both problems.

Class problem (the one you are required to do):  Billy Barney Dora and his parents are a little unusual. If he does an acceptable job of doing his chores, he gets paid $3.33 for that day. If he does an outstanding job, he gets $3 more. During one 10 day period, he received $42.30 for his work. How many days did Billy Barney Dora earn the extra money?

Challenge Problem:
 Study this picture. How many blocks would you need for a 20-step staircase? Set up an algebraic equation to solve.

Reading: One reading reflection (you should have 11 -- one question and a summary)

Vocab: WW12 due Friday/ Quiz.   You will have your cumulative exam for unit 10-12 next Tuesday. STUDY.

Writing: We will be finishing up our literary devices unit this week.  You will have a final test on this information this Friday.  I handed back your quiz from last week.  Many of you did very well!  For those of you who did not perform as well as you had hoped, you need to study these.  Come see me if you are confused!

Have a great evening!
