Bothers - Today, students practiced writing and graphing inequalities. They also used a Tree Map to take notes on this concept. HW: IXL AA.1, AA.2, and AA.3 are due on FRIDAY! Katz - Today we were in the computer lab reviewing concepts learned this year. One of our 7th grade students is on a mission to raise money to help those that don't have access to clean water. Please consider giving a donation, no matter how small, by going to https://my.charitywater.org/arshiya-vyas/ecms-clean-water-fundraiser. Every donation that is made in the name of one of my students will earn the student a Jolly Rancher in class. Congratulations to the following students for winning a $10 Amazon Gift Card in the drawing held yesterday for those that increased their MI score by 30 points or more. It was amazing how many kids were eligible to enter! 1st Regina 2nd Dominic 3rd COMING SOON 4th Joey HW: IXL New Multiplying and Dividing One-Step Equations (In the Z Section) Leach - Today, students were in the computer lab working on inequalities.
