Activities for the upcoming week

Hi Guys,
I want to share with you how excited and proud I was of you this past two weeks. Grade Seven students you were exemplary at the NASHER and I knew you took away a great experience that only serves to bring all the theoretical aspect of scale drawing that we were doing in class to life.

Grade Eight students you brought it home when you did your freestyling on Pythagoras' Theorem. If he were still alive he would have been sooo very proud of you. This topic I know you do understand. Emmannuel, I dont know who can say anything to you about special right triangles or Pythagorean Triples?...I really dont know. If you do, please tell them to step up!

The group I hung out with at the Museum of History and the Museum of Natural Science....I had a wonderful time. You were well behaved as well as very curious about the exhibits...we are all proud of you.

To all groups, please be reminded that you will be receiving a test on next week Tuesday(7&8)Friday(6). Grade eight will be focussing on The Pythagorean Theorem, Grade Seven-ratio, proportion and percents while grade Six will be tested on Factors and Indices.

Grade six, you should focus your attention on reviewing how to list the factors or multiples of numbers, writing numbers as product of their prime factors,writing numbers in index form, writing a power in standard form, basic computation with powers as well as finding the LCM or GCF of sets of numbers.

Parents, thanks for your support and all the words of appreciation and encouragement you gave at the parent/teacher conference we had this past Friday. Educating our students is a collaborative effort and I am very happy to be blessed with parents who do understand this and are willing to work with us for the betterment of their child/ward. Thanks a million!!!

Have a great weekend.
