Period 2/3
Class is currently working on Standard NS 1.5. This standard requires students to convert from decimal to fraction and fraction to decimal. Early indications show that they will do very well on this standard.
We just started a class wiki. This will allow students to collaborate on projects and create a class "toolkit" , if you will.
Period 4/5
We recently took a post test on standard 6.0. This standard involves finding x and y intercepts and graphing linear equations as well as inequalities. The class average on the pre test was just over 70%. The post test average was well over 80%. They are showing growth but need to improve confidence which seems to be linked to motivation.
Period 6/7
Class is doing great. They challenge me everyday...I love it! We are currently working on Standard 2.0 which deals with number sense. The tough part of this standard involves the exponent rules...specifically the rational exponents. Encourage your student to explain to you what a rational exponent is.
We have created a class wiki. Students are currently working on a project for standard 4.0. The wiki is a website that students can edit. At the end of the year, we will have a product that was created by everyone. It is pretty exciting.
