No warm up today.
Students took their math final exam during today's class. Many students did not finish so will have tomorrow's class to finish up. If you were absent for math class today, you will need to take the test tomorrow. It will count as a test grade for the 4th quarter.
Hang in there guys, you are almost to high school!!!
We will have a review session for the final exam, Monday at 8:30.
Warm Up #10Download Warm Up 5 15 (puthagorean theorem problem)
Students turned in warm ups today. This is the last set of warm ups for the year!!
On Friday, we reviewed the answers to the Math 8 Review packet. This packet is an excellent study guide for Monday's final exam. Although students were not graded on completion of the review packet, those who did finish it before Friday's class learned from their mistakes. The payoff will be on the final exam : ) .Download Math 8 review key
I am attaching an answer key to the review packet and some additional practice questions. Try these practice questions and check your work to the answer key. Download Final study guide Download Final study guide key
Homework - Review the Math 8 review packet and the additional practice questions to prepare for the Monday's final exam.
Field day, no class today : )
If you would like some preview/help with reviewing for the final exam, I will be available at 8:15 tomorrow morning.
No warm up today. We had a computation challenge. If you were absent, you do NOT need to make it up. Expect to have warm up #10 on Friday and be ready to turn them in that day.
We took today's class to review the first 2 pages of the Math 8 review packet that students began on Friday. You should finish trying the rest of the packet before we meet again on Friday. We will go over the rest of it that day.
Homework - Finish test corrections. Corrections are due when you get to school tomorrow. Also, finish the math 8 review packet for Friday's class.
I sent home deficiency notices with students who have a 75% or lower in math. Those are due back tomorrow with a parent signature. If you have questions, please email me at cheryl.aller@cobbk12.org.

Students worked on corrections to last week's test during today's class. Please turn in corrections along with explanations of why you missed each question for 1/2 credit no later than Wednesday morning. If you finish them sooner, turn them in earlier. Since we do not have class on Wednesday, you will need to bring the corrections to me before homeroom that day.
Although you are not able to take the test questions home to do corrections, you had time today to write out the problems you need to rework. I will also have the room open at 8:30 tomorrow morning so you can get the questions you need to work on.
Remember, the study guide is an excellent resource to help with your corrections. It is attached here.Download Unit 7 study guide key
Homework - work on test corrections
No Warm Up today.
Students began work on a Final Exam review packet. We will also spend a few days next week on the packet, but working on it outside of class will ensure you can ask me questions about the ones you are not sure about. If you misplace your review packet, you may download and print another one here. Download Math 8 review problems
Homework - go over problem areas from the review packet and treat your mother well!

The final exam for math will be Monday, May 18. Students will receive a review packet during tomorrow's class. We will spend at least two days working on it over the next week. I will also be available Thursday morning at 8:15 to answer students' questions about the packet and the test.
No warm up today.
Students finished their unit 7 test today. There is no homework tonight.
Because of the field day change to next Wednesday, we will spend time tomorrow working on a final exam review packet. Test corrections will be next Monday.
I will be giving out deficiency notices during Monday's class. Those grades will include all assignments through today's test. Credit for test corrections will be added after students complete them next week.
