Problem solving Assessment (Completed on 9/16-9/17)  It is reflected as a grade on classwork with another adjustment grade attached to off set any negative impact-This math assessment pre-test is being used as a benchmark to compare growth at the end of the year.

WS Packet 9.4, 9.5 and 9.6 has been adjusted to only have the students do the odd number problems.  If the students have done all of the problems thus far, they will receive some extra credit points.

reminder that after school math help is normally on monday, but have the student check with their teachers, most of the time, it is OK for them to stay after to complete their work or get help.
