The homework for tonight is worksheet 7-2, which deals with finding equivalent ratios. Many students finished in class and have already turned it in. Also, the six weeks ends next Friday, November 8th and many students still have missing work so they have a little over a week to get everything turned in.

All the students worked on test corrections today and missing work so the only homework they would have is their missing work. They will not have homework tomorrow because I will not be at school.

Unit 2 Test

I have attached a copy of the test for students who need to do test corrections. The corrections were supposed to be due Thursday, but since many students forgot, the corrections will be due on Tuesday, October 15. They will need to correct the questions that they got incorrect by showing their work and their new answer on a separate sheet of paper. Once they finish, they will staple their corrections to their original paper and turn them in. 

Also, their homework tonight is worksheet 5-3 and they are only doing the odd questions. Below is a video on how to add and subtract unlike denominators.

HW: worksheet 4-9, about estimating fractions and then adding or subtracting. The last 4 problems are extra credit but I would encourage the students to try and answer them.
