Today, math classes continued to work on finding area of parallelograms and triangles. We practiced breaking more complicated figures into simpler parts so that we could use the formulas we knew to find areas of figures. Read page 508-509, then do Workbook Lesson 10-3. Show all work on notebook paper. Problems need to be worked out on 3 lines, with the formula on the first line, substituting numbers for the variables on the second line, then finally, putting the answer on the third line. Don't forget to include the squared units, and show all work in rows and columns. Number all problems. We will have a test next Monday that will include these area problems, along with circumference and area of circles.

Second, sixth, and seventh period classes received their integer quizzes to be signed today. Third period will receive theirs tomorrow.

Warm-ups for Tuesday, March 22 are on page 503 (23-26), on adding and subtracting decimals. After checking the Workbook Lesson 10-3, we will continue to compute area and perimeter, then do page 510 (1-8) in regular math. Advanced math classes will discuss comparing perimeter to area on page 511-512 in the text, then do page 513 (1-8) for homework.

On Wednesday, we will warm-up on page 503 (27-30) on proportions and percents. After checking homework, we will learn to identify parts of a circle, then find circumference and area of a circle. Read page 516-517, then do page 518 (1-9) for regular math, and (1-12) for advanced.

Thursday's warm-ups will be on page 507 (21-26) on multiplying mixed numbers. We will continue to practice finding area and circumference of circles on page 518 (13, 14, 15) and page 520 (15 - 20). Remember to ask questions and to study for the quiz on Monday on finding area of triangles, parallelograms, and circles.
