Math 7A and 7B
Students are currently wrapping up the fractions unit. Since this unit was broken up by the midterm they are writing an open book unit exam today (7A) and tomorrow (7B). We will start working on the next unit which is Expressions and Algebra. This unit should take us up until spring break. We shift in math 7 as now students are allowed to use calculators and I would advise that they start bringing one to class as soon as possible. It is recommended that it is a scientific calculator as they will need one in grade 8 and 9; however, any simple calculator with basic operations will do for grade 7.

Math 8C
Students are currently working on the surface area and volume unit. They are writing a surface area quiz tomorrow which covers surface area of rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, and cylinders. Next week we will begin working on volumes and I would expect that they will be writing the unit exam the following week (Feb 25-Mar 1). After that, we will begin a unit on Percents, Ratios, and Rates. This unit should take us into spring break.
