Weekly Update 12/9/16


Math

In math this week we finished up chapter 5 with a test on algebra. It included;  writing expressions, adding and subtracting fractions, factoring expressions and  using expressions to solve real-world problems. The test corrections will be handed back next week and students can take them home over the break to make any changes they need to make. We will be starting chapter 6 next week with a quick introduction.

 

Science

This week in science, we started a presentation on riparian zones. Every student was given a point of view and asked to research how their point of view would increase, decrease or not change riparian rules in Oregon. Next week we will be giving our presentations and our mock panel will be making a decision. This has been a good way for students to understand the social, economical and environmental impacts decisions made in the real world.
