Week 11 - End of Grading Period 2

Wall-E
For students who chose the movie ticket prize, I will be showing Wall-E in my classroom during lunch.  Bring your lunch and I'll supply the popcorn!

End of Grading Period 2
This Friday marks the close of the second grading period.  All work must be submitted by Friday in order for me to grade the work and enter it by the Tuesday teacher grade submission deadline.

This Week
This week, we will be beginning our next unit of study: Ratios, Rates, Proportions, and Percents.  We will begin with simple ratios (e.g. 3 blue cars to 4 white cars can be written as 3 to 4, 3:4, or the fraction 3/4), rates (e.g. 60 miles per hour, 4 bananas for $2 = $0.50/banana), and proportions.

Homework for the week is as follows:
Monday (10/24) - WB 5-1 #1, 10, 18-20
Tuesday (10/25) - WB 5-2 #1, 7, 11
Wednesday (10/26) - WB 5-3 #1, 9, 13, 14
Thursday (10/27) - Unit 3 Quiz 1 Practice Problems
Friday (10/28) - Problem of the Week #9 (Game Show)
