Enriched Math 7 & Math 7/March 23-27

Enriched:

Most of this week will be spent reviewing for the CRCT by doing performance tasks that correlate with each unit we have studied this year.  Students are working on a task entitled, "Girls Versus Boys," where students formulate a question, collect data, create graphs, and use measures of central tendency/variation to statistically show the difference between boys/girls on the questions the students are testing.  Students also did a review worksheet on Tuesday involving function tables and one-step equations (with integers and all four operations).  We will close the week on Friday with DEAR reading/AM math.

Math 7:

On Monday, students did a reteaching worksheet on mean, median, mode, and box-and-whisker plots.  On Tuesday, students did a review worksheet covering one-step equations with integers and all four operations.  Wednesday through Friday, students will review for the CRCT by doing a performance task that correlates with our first unit covered this school year involving data analysis.  We will close the week on Friday with DEAR reading/AM math.
