Week of March 26-29, 2018

Week 4 of the 5th Six Weeks


       Falcons, we just finished covering geometric concepts and will now transition to Topic 15: Graphical Representations of Data.

Throughout Topic 15 you  will be able to:

1. develop an initial understanding of statistical variability;
2. select an appropriate representation for presenting data from circle graphs, bar graphs, stem-and-leaf plots, and histograms;
3. use appropriate representations for displaying data and investigate the relationships between the various representations;
4. justify their decisions around representing data through explanation, work products, or class discussion.

Watch Video below this post learn more about our math lesson.

Remember your Math District Benchmark is on April 10, 2018 and Reading on April 11, 2018, work hard to hit those Master's Levels! Also, ensure you are working hard in all your classes, are focused, and turning in your assignments ON TIME! No Excuses!

Reminders:

• Progress Report Card Pick-Up, Wednesday, March 28 at Peter Piper Pizza from 4-6 pm. 
• 6th Grade Easter Egg Hunt, Wednesday after lunch. 
• 6th Grade Movie Field Trip to Tinseltown in Mission, Tx. on Thursday, March 29, 2018. 
• No School on Friday, March 30.
• Enjoy your Easter Weekend with friends and family!

Week of March 19-23, 2018

Mighty Falcons,


      I hope everyone had a relaxing spring break, alongside, making many new memories with friends and family by staying "unplugged." 

This week we will

• model and apply the formulas for area of rectangles, parallelograms, triangles, and trapezoids, and for volume of rectangular prisms;
• develop a formula for the area of a regular polygon;
• determine areas of irregular shapes and special quadrilaterals by decomposing and rearranging them into rectangles;
• generate conversions for length and area;
• solve problems involving the volume of rectangular prisms and area of triangles and quadrilaterals—where dimensions are positive rational numbers—by writing and solving equations.

     District benchmark #2 will be on April 10, 2018, so let's work hard to strive for success and work toward full academic progression. Ask for help when need be and remember that hard work pays off. 

Reminders: 

Attendance Counts!

Do good!

Tutorials will resume this Saturday from 8am-12pm.

STAAR Mathematics is on Monday, May 14,2018 and STAAR Reading is on May 15, 2018. You got this Mighty Falcons, let's hit those Masters Levels!
