Mrs. London's Math Class!

Important Items: 

1.  Student-led Conferences:  Thank you to the families that took their time to attend our conferences.  We appreciate your support of your child's education.

2.  Early Release Day:  Please remember that Tuesday, November 24th is our next early release day.  Bus riders will leave at 11:55, followed by car riders at 12:00.  Please make arrangements prior to this day.  Students are out of school November 25-November 27th.  HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

3. Field Trip: We will be attending the "Nutcracker" at A.L. Brown High School on December 10th.  Please sign and return permission slips along with the $4 payment as soon as possible.  Remember to send lunch money for a fast food restaurant on the day of the trip. 

4. Work folders will only be sent home 3 times during the second quarter. This is due to the numerous days out of school during this quarter. Please review your child's behavior sheet for points lost and look over the graded work.  Please sign the point sheet and return all graded work.  Student work will be kept in classroom portfolios during the year. 

5.  Tutoring: We will be available every Wednesday from 2:30-3:15 for students to stay and receive extra help on any subject or to have access to research materials or computers for upcoming projects.  If your child chooses to take advantage of this time, transportation MUST be provided at 3:15.


Grading Scale:

Grades cannot be determined by doing an average.  Each category of assgnment carries its own weight.

Projects:  35%

Tests:  30%

Quizzes:  20%

Classwork/Homework:  15%


Current Topics:

Currently we are working with finding the LCM of pairs/trios of numbers.  We are also continuing to use our knowledge of the divisibility rules while working with numbers. 

Once finished with LCM we will begin working with decimals and fractions.  We will not only compare and order them, but also convert between the two. Later in the month we will begin fraction operations (adding and subtracting with like denominators). 

*The topics currently being covered in class can be found in Chapters 4 and 5 of the textbook.  Students have been given a math textbook of their own to use this year.  It will serve as a resource for them to review class material. Doing the problems in the book and checking the answers in the back is a great way to review for quizzes and/or tests.  There is also a web site on the cover which will allow you access to additional practice problems for review online.
