Math Mania Night and Fractions and Algebra

Hello 7th Grade Parents,

I am using today's blog to highlight Math Mania Night.  Next Tuesday, January 12th, is the second annual Math Mania Night at NPES from 6-7 in the evening.  Last year, the event was a great success and everyone found the evening to be fun.  This year, I have put the evening in the students' hands and asked them to decide what would be the most enjoyable way to spend an hour at school working on math.  We have worked as a class to decide what they want to do for the evening.  They came up with some great ideas and I think it will be a lot of fun.  If your planning on joining us on the 12th, please RSVP Math Mania RSVP .  Please come join us.

This week in 7th grade math we are starting our fifth unit on fractions and algebra.  We started the week of by shooting some baskets to get some data to learn about Least Common Multiple (LCM) in a different way than they learned before.  We will use the shooting baskets numbers to use LCM to order and compare fractions.  We will then review how to convert between fractions and decimals and learn how to convert any repeating decimal into a fraction.
