More than love in the air this Valentine’s Day…

CLICK HERE FOR UPCOMING WCDS EVENTS

That’s right, sickness is running rampant right now. We know you’ll be doing lots of hand holding this Friday, so make sure you’re holding *sanitized* hands. We’ve been trying our best to maintain a clean environment, so school can carry on as expected. It was a shorter week, so not much went on outside of exchanging goodies for Valentine’s Day! Please see details about exhibition next week.

English w/ Mr. Rouse – Upcoming Tests/Quizzes- Aimsweb completed.

  • We didn’t do much outside of research topics for our paper because we had a short week and did Aimsweb on top of it.

Math w/ Mrs. Boldrick –

  • Upcoming Tests/Quizzes – none scheduled 
  • We reviewed the distributive property and combining like terms. 
  • We are working on solving one-step equations using all operations – addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. These problems include positive and negative numbers.
  • We’ll continue doing one-step equations, but will use fractions and decimals in these equations.
  • Any missed assignments can be found on Google Classroom. Students are responsible for making up any assignments they missed due to absences.
  • All math Aimsweb assessments are finished. Please reach out to me if you have any questions about their scores.
  • Algebra 1/Geometry – The students continued work with the Pythagorean Theorem while measuring the distance of a line on a coordinate grid.

Math w/ Mrs. Howells

  • Upcoming Tests/Quizzes – none scheduled
  • Everyone has now completed the winter benchmark assessment on Aimsweb. 
  • This week the students began working with decimals.
  • We covered these concepts:
    • Comparing and Ordering Decimals
    • Estimating Decimal Sums and Differences
    • Adding and Subtracting Decimals
  • The above listed concepts require several prerequisite skills so students revisited positive and negative numbers on the numberline, rounding to a certain place, and adding and subtracting integers.

Deep Dive w/ Mrs. McFadden & Mr. K –

  • Upcoming Tests/Quizzes- Exhibition – February 19th @ 5:00
  • We only met once this week, but we enjoyed seeing the final product come together!

  • Cooking – This week our chefs planned the menu for our exhibition next week. Then we took a trip to Kroger to buy the ingredients. We look forward to showcasing our dishes on Wednesday!
