| Math Block Day 1 2.1.1 |
8.EE.7a. Give examples of linear equations in one variable with one solution, infinitely many solutions, or no solutions. Show which of these possibilities is the case by successively transforming the given equation into simpler forms, until an equivalent equation of the form x = a, a = a, or a = b results (where a and b are different numbers). 8.EE.7b. Solve linear equations with rational number coefficients, including equations whose solutions require expanding expressions using the distributive property and collecting like terms. 8.EE.7a. Dar ejemplos de ecuaciones lineales en una variable con una solución, infinitas soluciones, o sin soluciones. Demuestre cuál de estas posibilidades es el caso transformando sucesivamente la ecuación dada en formas más sencillas, hasta que resulte una ecuación equivalente de la forma x = a, a = a, o a = b (donde a y b son números diferentes). 8.EE.7b. Resolver ecuaciones lineales con coeficientes de números racionales, incluidas las ecuaciones cuyas soluciones requieren expresiones expansivas utilizando la propiedad distributiva y recogiendo términos similares. Follow the instructions on Mr. Lovins Google classroom, and solve problems 2-1 to 2-4. Do learning log 2-5 as well. Siga las instrucciones del Sr. Lovins en el aula de Google, y resuelva los problemas 2-1 a 2-4. Haga el registro de aprendizaje 2-5 también. |
| Math Block Day 2 2.1.2 |
Today students will continue to use appropriate tools and build on yesterday’s introduction to the structure of algebraic notation as they find the area and perimeter of algebra tiles. Los estudiantes de hoy continuarán usando las herramientas apropiadas y se basarán en la introducción de ayer a la estructura de la notación algebraica para encontrar el área y el perímetro de las baldosas de álgebra. Learn the first 10 words in the vocabulary link below. Watch the video on perimeter and algebra tiles. Do Problems 2-11, 2-13 (parts (a) through (c)), and 2-14 - And 2-16 learning log. Aprende las primeras 10 palabras del enlace de vocabulario que aparece a continuación. Mira el vídeo sobre el perímetro y las baldosas de álgebra. Haz los problemas 2-11, 2-13 (partes (a) a (c)), y 2-14 - y 2-16 registro de aprendizaje. |
| Optional Extra Credit | All Review/Preview problems. |
| Science | |
| Science Block Day 1 Activity 10 |
Students will be responsible for watching a video on how Frame of Reference changes depending on your viewpoint. Students will then answer all of the questions in activity 10, based on that video. Los estudiantes serán responsables de ver un video sobre cómo cambia el Marco de Referencia dependiendo de su punto de vista. Los estudiantes responderán a todas las preguntas de la actividad 10, basándose en ese video. |
| Science Block Day 2 Activity 11 |
Students will determine what effect gravity has on their ability to measure how fast a ball falls from different distances. Once students have made that determination, they will answer the questions in Activity 11 for Science. Los estudiantes determinarán el efecto que la gravedad tiene en su capacidad de medir la rapidez con la que una bola cae desde diferentes distancias.

8.EE.7a. Give examples of linear equations in one variable with one solution, infinitely many solutions, or no solutions. Show which of these possibilities is the case by successively transforming the given equation into simpler forms, until an equivalent equation of the form x = a, a = a, or a = b results (where a and b are different numbers). 8.EE.7b. Solve linear equations with rational number coefficients, including equations whose solutions require expanding expressions using the distributive property and collecting like terms. 8.EE.7a. Dar ejemplos de ecuaciones lineales en una variable con una solución, infinitas soluciones, o sin soluciones. Demuestre cuál de estas posibilidades es el caso transformando sucesivamente la ecuación dada en formas más sencillas, hasta que resulte una ecuación equivalente de la forma x = a, a = a, o a = b (donde a y b son números diferentes). 8.EE.7b.

Hello Parents,
Students will be required to complete the work below, as well as two assignments that will be worked on over the holiday break. For Math, students will have a take home test that they will need to do. It will be posted on Friday the 18th, and it will be due before we return to school. For science, students will be asked to complete a food diary, as we focus on teaching the students how to read, and understand food labels, so they can make healthier and more informed eating decisions as they get older.
