Grade 6, 7 & 8 Math - Graphing

In all the math classes today we collected primary data about the students. For homework, all students are to choose a set of data (from two possibilities) and complete a graph. I explained to each class what type of graph I would like them to use for the data they collected. We have discussed the essential elements of all graphs and they should check to make sure that they have included those in their graph.
If they forgot to take the data sheet home or have lost it, I would suggest that they call/visit/text/Facebook a classmate to get the information.

Everyone's graph is due tomorrow in math class.

Grade 8 Math - Homework & Test

For homework, students should complete questions 1, 2, 3 and 4 from page 292 of their math textbook.

Also, there is a geometry test on Friday. They must study the following skills and knowledge:

• sort and classify triangles and quadrilaterals, according to sides, angles, symmetry and diagonals,
• construct circles from the centre and a point or from three points,
• angle relationships created by parallel, intersecting and transversal lines,
• angles relationships within a triangle,
• the Pythagorean relationship for right angle triangles.

Students primary study material should be the notes that they should be taking in class. However, they may also use the relevant parts of chapters 6, 7 & 8 from the textbook for extra study material.

Math Homework Club
