Numbered assignments are listed on the day they are DUE!

WASL Countdown - March 24 to April 18
Class days remaining and topics to be reviewed...
April 14 Equations Review April 15 Inequalities April 16 Units of Measure 238-240 78-80
Percent Proportons 462-465
April 17 Area Formulas April 18 Fraction Decimal Percent Ratio

The assignments for this week will be selected( Page 29 1-3 P30 4-6 p31 7-9 p32 10-12 P33 13-15 P34 16-17 P35 18) in Filling and Wrapping book. Since the best approach to these problems is investigative, students and their selected work partners (if any) are to work on these problems at their own rates. Problems will be corrected/scored/recorded on a daily basis on the amount finished. It is expected that students will consider some of the problems as homework. All assigned problems will be finished by 4-16-2003
. Teacher assistance will be available in the classroom. Students are strongly encouraged to bring graph paper, scissors and rulers for this week.

OBJECTIVE: #To develop a strategy for finding the volume of a rectangular prism by filling it with unit cubes and to recognize that the number of cubes in the bottom layer is equal to the area of the base. #To determine that the total number of unit cubes in a rectangular prism is equal to the area of the base times the height (the volume) and to discover that this strategy works for any prism #To learn that the surface area of a prism is the sum of the areas of its faces and to apply this strategy to any right prism #To reason about problems involving volume and surface area. ACTIVITIES: WASL Review 'Equations Review' Continue working on the assinged text problems (with help) NOTES: (Week) Page 29 1-3 P30 4-6 p31 7-9 p32 10-12 P33 13-15 P34 16-17 P35 18 HOMEWORK: (Recommended 12-14)
