HOmework

There no homework this weekend.  However, it would be a good idea to practice some of the test release questions.

For those of you who are absent please download chocolate chip cookies and multiplication of mixed numbers and math mixed numbers.  Try to use fraction bar pictures to show what is happening mathematically.  For example 1/2  X 1  1/3  put out one and one third fraction bars.  Find half of one....then find half of 1/3.    Whatever, those pieces are add them and you will have your answer.  (in a perfect world, it would be easier to show you)

TEST RELEASE QUESTIONS

I have attached a link (on the top right side of my blog page) that has sample MATH, SCIENCE, AND SOCIAL STUDIES questions that have been on the CAT 6 test you will take in late April.  

We will go over some of these questions in class.  I think that this would give you a good idea of what the test is like.   You will also get a better sense of your strengths and weaknesses.

HAVE A GREAT VACATION!!!!
