I recently got married and my new last name is Sanders. I decided to put this information on my website because so many of my students have already started calling me Mrs. Sanders. Email has changed. New email address is tsanders@mcsdga.net

I have added a link on this site for my students to take CRCT test online for extra credit.Just click on the link and sign in. All students should have their login information. If they need it again, they need to see Miss Mack.


We have a new math textbook!! Please visit Holt textbook website at go.hrw.com! Click middle school and then course 1. You will see what the textbook is about and it will also provide homework help online. The website also has a link for parent resources.

CRCT Problem of the Week 

Completing the following problem will earn you 5 points on a test grade. You must write the original problem as it is written on this website, show all work and you must be able to explain in detail how you got your answer(use words and drawings when necessary). GOOD LUCK!!


 
Homework
Students will be working on Accelerated Math at home. This will not be every night. It will be about 2-3 nights per week until the end of the year.

Notes must be studied every night!!

Don't forget you can access homework help online. The website is go.hrw.com. There is a link to the left. A few of my students have already used the website. It is very helpful. Check it out!

 What are the 6th graders learning?
We are now on Chapter 9, Geometry and Measurement.

In this chapter, your child will learn some of the fundamentals of plane geometry. This includes learning how to describe various figures in geometric terms, measure angles, and solve problems involving measurements of angles and lines. It also involves learning about polygon relationships. The information in this chapter can be applied to careers in aviation, navigation, design, and many others. The building blocks of geometry are points, lines, and planes.

Georgia Standards For Chapter 9

1. M6A1 Students will understand the concept of ratio and use it to represent quantative relationships.
2. M6A2a Analyze and describe patterns arising from mathematical rules, tables, and graphs.
3. M6A2c Use proportions to describe relationships and solve problems, including percent problems.
4. M6A2g Use proportional reasoning to solve problems.
5. M6G1c Use the concepts of ratio, proportion, and scale factor to demonstrate the relationships between similar plane figures.
6. M6G1e Solve problems involving scale drawings.
7. M6P4c Recognize and apply mathematics in contexts outside of mathematics.
8. M6P5a Create and use representations to organize, record, and communicate mathematical ideas.
9. M6P5b Select, apply, and translate among mathematical representations.
10. M6P5c Use representations to model and interpret physical, social, and mathematical phenomena.
11. M6A2a Analyze and describe patterns arising from mathematical rules, tables, and graphs.
12. M6P4a Recognize and use connections among mathematical ideas.
13. M6P4b Understand how mathematical ideas interconnect and build on one another to produce a coherent whole.
14. M6N1f Use fractions, decimals, and percents interchangeably.
15. M6A3 Students will evaluate algebraic expressions, including those with exponents, and solve simple one-step equations using each of the four basic operations.

 
Accelerated Math
Accelerated Math is back up and running. I am so excited!!! GOAL for 4th NINE WEEKS is 30 objectives mastered for my regular math class and 40 objectives mastered for my advanced class.

Accelerated Math is a computer program that generates personalized math assignments at each student's level, then scores them automatically.

Students are expected to work on accelerated math consistently throughout the nine weeks so that they can reach their goal. Students will be given class time (minimal) during the week to work on accelerated math, but they will mainly complete the assignments at home.

If your child does not complete an exercise at home or requires an assignment to be reprinted, they will lose 5 points each time off of their Accelerated Math Homework grade. If your child accumulates 3 instances of not completing homework or needing an assignment reprinted, they will be assigned Academic Detention where they will work on Accelerated Math after school.

 Helpful Tips for Parents
** PLAN AND ORGANIZE. Mark a calendar with the due date for a special project, report or test. Help your child break the task into manageable parts and mark a completion date on the calendar for each task. Praise progress as your child counts down to completion.

** SHARE PLANS. At regular family meetings, be a role model by talking about your plans, how you will get everything accomplished and meet your deadlines for the week. Help your child plan for extracurricular activities and family commitments that interrupt study schedules.

** ENCOURAGE QUESTIONS. Curiosity is nature's sign of a motivation to learn. To keep interest high, answer your child's questions and encourage more.

** Many children need assistance in organizing and maintaining a notebook. Help them develop a system for organizing and maintaining notebook and notes. Student notebooks are an invaluable record of successful strategies and reflective summaries. This is a crucial part of your child's mathematical education, and an important aid to parents and guardians as well.

** Help your children develop a system for taking meaningful notes. Frequently, note taking is taught during class, so it may just be a matter of seeing if your children are taking and using notes.

** Encourage and expect children to get work done on time, to stay caught up, to get help in a timely manner, and to correct errors in work. You may want to help children go over incorrect or incomplete work and talk about how the work could be improved.

** It is generally expected that middle school students know the basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division facts as well as whole number computation. If your children are not proficient with these skills, help them master the needed skills.
