That's a Wrap!

Our first chapter from our CPM textbook is in the book! I am so proud of the 6th graders and all their hard work during this chapter. We learned new things about:

Finding sums of positive AND negative integers.

Determining which numbers make equations true.

Scaling axes of graphs.

Finding measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode).

Displaying data on stem and leaf plots.

Displaying data on box-and-whisker plots.

 

Wow! Look at all those skills! To show how the math we learn can be used in REAL LIFE, I found the measures of central tendency for our math scores:

Mean: 83.24%

Median: 88%

Mode: 88%, 91%, 94%, 96%, 99%

 

After we reviewed our tests today, we set goals for improvement. The 6th graders did an amazing job, but good learners set goals to keep achieving MORE AND MORE!!

 

 



 

Congratulations on a job well done 6th graders. I'm proud of you for the effort you put forth, the growth you've made, and the goals you have set to keep improving! Finally, here are some pictures of some of the problems we solved as a class!

 

Solving for unknown numbers (variables).

We applied measures of central tendency to a real-life situation!

Completing number lines and graph axes was difficult at first, but we worked hard and caught on quickly!Those tricky intervals were no match for us! 

 

I can't wait to see you succeed in chapter 2! Keep up the great work 6th graders!
