The students are really enjoying working on Learnstorm Chicago through Khan Academy. Did you know they can also work on it at home? It is fun to see them achieve their badges and avatars! This week we placed in the top 100 of all schools participating. For periods 1 and 3 we are finishing our unit on solving and graphing inequalities. What kind of real life situations involve inequalities? Ask your child! For periods 2 and 9, we wrapped up our unit on dividing fractions and now beginning ratios. What are ratios? Students found out today so they probably can tell you! For periods 7 and 8, we have been working on solving ratio problems through tape diagrams, ratio tables and double number lines. We learned this week what rates are. Did you know all rates are ratios but not all ratios are rates? We will be working on Learn Storm Chicago next week on 2/29 and 3/4. Make sure your child brings their ear buds so they can listen to the tutorials. Have a great weekend! Mrs. Biarnesen
