We will test over this unit on Wednesday, September 26th. Yellow Math- We have been working on 6th grade unit 2. This unit covers ratios, unit rate, proportions (equivalent ratios), and percents. So far we have learned what ratios are and the different ways to write ratios as well as unit rate. This week we will be learning about percents and making that connection between percents and proportions. We will test over this unit on October 3rd. Social Studies- We are continuing our work with learning about the Turn of the Century. We have learned about westward expansion, native American relations, famous inventors, immigration to the United States, and industrial development. We will continue to cover these topics and dive in deeper to Native American relations. We will test over this unit on Tuesday, September 25th.
