The Coordinate Plane

Yesterday they started at class a drawing that was finished at home as a homework. 

Today they have to do the following homework to hand out tomorrow. 

Remember that tomorrow is our quiz of the coordinate plane. Study!!!

What we have been working on?

On the past two weeks we have been working on different types of graphs. We have created them and read them.

Students have made some interviews to gather information to create a specific type of graph.

Last week students created a small picture with their name and number of their birthday to put on Our Birthday Graph that is on the wall of our math classroom.

Also last week students were divided in groups to make an oral presentation of graphs. I'm surprise of the students posters. They are so creative.

Today we started on the oral presentations of graphs. Parents check the student's notebook for the total of points obtained.

***Parents: please check the student's notebook every now and then. Also check the back of the notebook for any new information on the points obtained on the different works given in class.***

Bar Graphs

Today students started working on their homework for next friday. 

Students choose their topic, question and five alternatives. 

This part goes on your notebook. Here you write your notes.
