MATH UPDATE: AUGUST 20-24, 2018

Welcome to Wild's Math! We have a great year planned and I am excited to help guide your student(s) to grow as Mathematicians, processors, and problem-solvers.
 
Every week, I will have an update posted to each of my class pages. These updates will not be long in the least bit, nothing more than a few bullet points that address the concepts/topics that we are covering for the week.
 
In the case that more needs to be addressed (such as conference information, project synopses, etc), I will post an additional update, as well as an email.
 
Additionally, your student will be emailing you once a week with these updates as well as giving you a run down on how they are doing in their classes. 
 
THIS IS THE LONGEST UPDATE YOU WILL RECEIVE, PROMISE! (The following is what will be a normal weekly update):
 
This week in Math, students will:
  • Unit Diagnostic Assessment (Rates, Ratios, and Proportions)
  • Introduced to Doodle Notes (our way of taking notes)
  • Begin our Workshop Model
  • Participate in Independent and Small Group Instruction and Practice
Have a Wonderful Westgate Week!
