The week of October 24th...

Hello All Stars! We have a short week ahead of us, as we enter Module "C"! Groups 1A, 3A, and 4B are working on Fractions, Decimals, and Percent. Groups 5B and 6B are working on Linear Equations. This is an exciting time in the school year as we break into the core concepts for the year. Keep your thinking caps on and keep up with all assignments.

Intensive Math 6th Grade: (Team Time Group)
Fractions, Decimals, and Percents and Adding and Subtracting Rational Numbers, using Agile Mind software.

Parents: We have begun using "Agile Mind", a software driven resource that allows each student to maximize their learning potential. Your learner has a login and password that allows them to track their progress and advance their learning at home and school. Please encourage them to do at least 30min at home weekly. We are off to an amazing start, their efforts are commendable and I expect the results to be favorable. Thank you!
