7th grade: the 7th grade finished their NCAPs yesterday so we are picking up the pieces with Mug's Hat page 24 and labsheet(s) 2.2A and another with 4 grids used to plot the the various hats. We also reviewed page 33 #14 - 18, and page 34 #20 - 26. The ACE work, pages 33 & 34, use many fractions and percents with co-ordinate points so we have been reviewing skills.
8th grade: the 8th grade is still testing so last Friday we used some clay to and transparencies to look at cylinders, cones, and spheres. Students were asked to look at the fractional part of the cylinder filled by the clay sphere when air spaces were removed. We also used popcorn to explore the cylinder and cone. We will continue to look at this when we finish NECAPs.
