Monday!

Hi gang!

It's been so long since I saw you!  I missed you over Thursday and Friday and today we got right into our swing of things!

6ers - we discussed comparing fractions - how do you know if a fraction is bigger than another fraction? YOU HAVE TO MAKE THE DENOMINATORS THE SAME!

Here is the link to tonight's cow


7ers - today we took the time to make 'how to' charts for last week's homework problems.  Remember, if you did not hand in ALL of your tasks YOU MUST DO THAT ASAP.  If you need another task sheet you must let me know so as to ensure all of your assignments are complete.  Tomorrow we will begin looking at our next unit on cells, tissues, and organ systems.

Stay tuned for a link to tomorrow's COW.

See you tomorrow!

All ixl standards must be at 90!

Hi gang!

Im not going to be here tomorrow or Friday and I wanted to post some reminders for you!  7C All of your tasks are due tomorrow or at the beginning of the period on Friday -- it all depends on how well you work!  I posted rubrics for the algebra book project and the cell project last week on the blog, so if you want to work on it tonight and did not bring the sheets home, you can access it here. Work hard and don't forget that part of your tasks are to complete IXL!  6C must have their fraction tasks completed by the end of the class period on Thursday and hand that in to Mr. Curly.

Work hard! I'll miss you!

Mid Winter Break - But not for your mind!

7ers!  As we have so many wonderful projects ahead of us I am uploading BOTH the cell project and the algebra book project so that you can work on it over the weekend.  We will not be spending any more time on these projects in class after Wednesday so I HIGHLY URGE you to get a head start on one or both of these.  Also remember your IXL standards Y4 and V1 were due on Thursday.
Congratulations to ELLA! For beating EVERY LEVEL of MFIAF in under one minute!!

Congratulations ELLA! You NEVER have to see Math FACTS again!  That is an 8th grade standard!

Here are the links to the VERY VERY IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS!

ALGEBRA BOOK PROJECT

CELL PROJECT

6ers...all I have to say is IXL!!!! If you didn't finish YOU MUST FINISH THIS WEEKEND. It will affect your grade if these are not done! See earlier blog posts for the standards that you must finish.

HAPPY FRACTIONS AND ALGEBRA!  And for those of you that didn't beat MFIAF,......BEAT IT! BEAT IT! BEAT IT! and then you never have to see it again!!!!!

Tuesday toasty!

Hi 6ers and 7ers! What a great Tuesday!

Today in 7th grade we went over our COWs and what it means to meet the standard for reasoning and communication. We then spent the second half of the class period in the computer lab.  You guys have really got it going on with MFIAF! 

Here is the link to tonight's COW

our 6ers worked very hard on their fraction work, spent some time in the computer lab and had a talk about finishing ALL of their assigned homework.
6ers MUST finish their IXL standards, T7, T8, U7, U1, U3, U6 and this week's W3, X6 and X7.
This is part of your final grade, failure to do so by Thursday will cause a drop in your knowledge grade!

I don't have a copy of your 6th grade COW for tonight, so please look on Ms. Hobby's website. This can be accessed from www.atlantachartermiddle.com

See you tomorrow!!!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hello my wonderful students! Yes, today is Valentine's day and we had so many festive outfits, candies and treats on this wonderful day! Remember gang, this is a short week so we have to make sure we use every minute to the best of our ability.  Stay focused!  Today our 6ers had an excellent day as we compared and contrasted, using a Venn Diagram, the weathering labs -- with the pennies and slate.  You guys did an EXCELLENT job of determining the similarities and differences.  We spent the last hour continuing our Checkups for fractions and many of you felt the frustration of brain power!  The tasks are going to be challenging but we know that ALL OF YOU CAN DO IT!  It will take some hard work, thinking and dedication. But you can all do it.  Tomorrow we will continue our fraction work and start to pass out the "Pet Rock project!'

7ers had a day of 'What do you Know' Review.  We went over the parts of the cell Graphic Organizer, project to come on that -- and then spent the rest of the class period going over our Algebra assessment. The rest of this week will be spent finishing the reasoning tasks and working on our Algebraland books.  We are also going to start working on the parts of the cell project.

Here is the COW for tonight 7ers

Tuesday 6 C Cow!

Hi gang!

Today we had a magical Tuesday!  the 7th graders filled in Venn Diagrams comparing Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes and a foldable for the four parts of the cell theory,  while the 6th graders took their STAR test, practiced simplifying fractions, learned how to divide fractions and practiced their fraction work.  I will not be in school tomorrow so make sure you get everything done your checklist so we are ready for Thursday!!!
