The aroma of peanut butter sandwiches is in the air at Saint Paul School. The school year is off to a great start !
Here's a preview of what the middle school math students at SPS will be exploring the first quarter.
6th Grade: Students in the 6th grade will begin the year by examining whole numbers. The order of operations will be studied--we may have to as Aunt Sally for some help. The quarter will end with a study of the language of Algebra. Solving equations will be introduced.
7th Grade: Students in the 7th grade will begin the year by learning how surveys are conducted, the data collected is analyzed and how data is displayed in tables and graphs. They will finish the quarter by studying number theories and Algebraic reasoning.--before he learned about exponents, the 7th grade base ballplayer kept making outs-he couldn't find the bases !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
8th Grade: Eighth grade students will begin the year by opening their "Algebra toolbox" and begin building a firm foundation for high school mathematics. Solving equations will be reviewed. Graphing inequalities will be introduced. Plotting ordered pairs will be mastered. For their quarter project, the 8th grade will "Get the Point !". The quarter will finish with a unit on integers and exponents.
Algebra: Eighth grade students who qualify, have the opportunity to take a high school level Algebra class and receive a high school credit. They will begin the quarter by exploring patterns in number sequences. They will also review the concepts of graphing linear patterns. The quarter will end with a unit that examines the operations in Algebra.
