7th:   The 7th grade has started their 3rd quarter strong.  This quarter is arguably the most important quarter of the year.  This is where we make our final push towards the AIMS test.  It is our last full quarter before then.  Progress reports come out one week from Monday.  We are resolutely focused on decimal, percent, and fraction conversions as well as interior angle relationships, decimal repetends, and complex rounding.  I know you can do guys.  Keep on working.
 
8th:   The 3rd quarter is arguably the most important quarter of the year.  This is where we make our final push towards the AIMS test.  It is our last full quarter before then.  Progress reports come out one week from Monday.  We are studying:  angle estimates, distributive property, compound probability, complex angle relationships, and volume of right solids.  The 8th grade is doing very well with incredibly complex concepts.  Keep your focus guys.
