Grade 8:
This past week the grade 8s started out by working on multiplying integers, both through understanding and using the symbol rules, and by demonstrating the multiplication visually using a number line. They also have practiced dividing integers, and we finished off this week with an Integers Puzzle Activity on Desmos. Next week we'll practice Integer order of operations and Integer word problems. Our Integers Unit Assessment will be on Thursday, Sept. 22.
Grade 9:
The past week the grade 9s have been working with Rational Numbers. We practiced ordering and comparing rationals, and converting between decimals, fractions, and mixed numbers. We began practicing solving rational equations in fraction form, and will introduce equations in decimal form next week. Also next week we will practice order of operation equations and solve word problems. Our Rational Numbers Assessment will likely be early in the week of Sept 26-29.
