In math class we are starting probability. We will be doing some group work for this week.

Good Monday Morning,
I hope you all had a restful Mother's Day Weekend and did something special with your family.
In math class, most of you did an excellent job with the special triangle quiz on Friday. You will be getting those back today and need to correct any errors if necessary and have your parents sign them.
We will start with some trigonometric functions today. They sound harder than they are so hang in there.
Homework:page 466 # 6- 8 and 13-15

Good Rainy Morning,
Today we should be able to do some math! That is a refreshing idea!
We are continuing on with special triangles: 45 45 90 and 30 60 90 and the formulas for both types. I believe that you are catching on and with today's lesson, that should happen for most kids.

Good Monday Morning,
I hope you all have a safe and healthy weekend.
We are taking the NWEA tests today in math class. Tomorrow in math class we are restarting new concepts after a break with the toothpick bridge contest. We are looking into special triangles and getting an understanding of square roots of irregular squares. Sounds difficult, but hang in there, it is easier than it sounds.

Happy Wednesday Morning,
Today we test the strength of the toothpick bridges down in the ping pong room as a whole team with GDI. I hope you all are surprised on how well your bridges do. On Friday, we will have the results of all of the other teams as they are breaking their's on Thursday and Friday. We will have a brief 8th assembly and announce the winning bridges.
Also on Friday, GDI is having a celebration for reaching the 500,000 milestone with the PULLTABS. The teachers are supplying pizza for the occasion. Please bring in drinks if you are in Mr Wilkinson /Mr Mitchell rooms- chips if you are in Mrs Littlefield or my room.
We will meet during lunch time and tutorial if needed.
Complete your work on Page 445 # 2-24 even if you have not done so.

Good Monday Morning,
Welcome back. I hope you all had a wonderful week break.
In math class today, we will be blowing out the fog from the long break-
The bridges should be all done by now, so the grading begins. The breaking will be on Wednesday!!
The news update for the pulltabs is that we did make our goal of 500,000 tabs counted and strung!! Congratulations! We are half way to the goal of one million! We have been collecting tabs for 2 1/2 years! Way to go class. To celebrate, we will be having a pizza party on Friday. We are asking you to bring in some food to help out, but we will provide the pizza. If you have a special diet, let me know. Mr. Wilkinson's and Mr.Mitchell's classes- drinks; Mrs.Littlfield's and my classes-chips. It is also Cup cake Friday, so that will be our desserts!
