I will be offering after school tutoring on Tuesday's until 4:00.

Pre-Algebra

Students are working on percents to decimals to fractions.  I have given each student a list of percents they have to know.  During the 1st part of this unit, the students will not be able to use a calculator. 

Test will be Monday, Feb. 15th without a calculator.

Next the students will be using a calculator finding percent of change, sales tax, discount, and percent word problems.

Math

Students will be finishing up with ratio and proportions.  They will be working on scale drawing and solving for scale factor.

Next, we will be moving on to percents.  sales tax, percent of change, discount, and percent word problems

*** STUDENTS HAVE HOMEWORK EVERY NIGHT.  PLEASE MAKE SURE THEY ARE COMPLETING IT.
The following things students need to bring to class each day:



1. Bring textbook, workbooks, pencils, folders, and paper everyday.



2. Be on time to class.



3. Have pencils and homework out when class starts.



The following things parents need to be aware of:
