A Short Week - March 2 & 3

Grade 7 - Began Chapter 7 and completed section 7.1 on common denominators. Students really need to know their multiplications tables for this chapter and reviewing them would be a great help to their understanding of factors and multiples. Next week we will continue with Chapter 7 and fractions.

Grade 9 - Corrected assignments for Chapter 5 and worked on a new action plan for their strengths and weaknesses for Chapter 5 and what they need to work on. We will use next week to wrap up Chapter 5 and students will focus on the area they are finding the most difficult in the chapter.
