1. Colleges and Universities DO NOT look at middle school transcripts Our students learn from making mistakes.

2. Welcome Team 6C Math – Taylor Sternotti taylor.sternotti@ww-p.org

3. Outdoor Education Wednesday-Friday, June 7th-9th, 2017
Important Dates:
Reports for PARCC will be mailed to parents during the week of September 19th
Outdoor Education Wednesday-Friday, June 7th-9th, 2017
Map Testing: Reports will be in the parent portal in Genesis on November 1, 2016. 
October 20,21- Teacher requested Conferences (Not everyone will have a conference)

4. In All Team Classes Emphasis Will Be On:
Organizational Skills “the explosion”
Attendance and Make up Work
Following both written & oral directions
Being a self-directed learner.
Study Skills- Proof of study
What is FLEX?
Homework – Emphasis is on PROCESS
Show that you tried to solve each problem by showing some work. NO Blank ANSWERS

5. Math classes use technology in the classroom:
Network computer password to log on to Chromebook and Google Chrome
Genesis account- Students have asked in class
Online textbook – user name and password
(optional hardcopy textbook)
Using Google Docs/Google Drawing/Google Classroom for document/project sharing

6. Ms. Sternotti’s Website-For HW & Online Textbook Info

7. Google Classroom- Activities

8. Homework & Class Preparation Rubric: Students are expected to arrive each day with a pencil, pen (of color), highlighter, math notebook (binder) and Chrome Book.
Required Homework assignments will be scored on a scale from 0 – 2. 0 = No Homework; or criteria not followed on all problems; no work is shown; or not completed within time allotted. 1 = All Homework is completed within time allotted but it is either not according to criteria outlined or all work is not shown. 1 = All Homework is not completed within time allotted (handed in late) and according to the criteria outlined; all required work is shown. 2 = All Homework is completed within time allotted and according to the criteria outlined; all required work is shown.

9. Problem Solving 9 4-Step Problem Solving Approach
Understand the Problem
Make a Plan
Use a variety of strategies
Diagrams, work backward, find patterns, make tables, Venn diagrams, organized lists, draw pictures
Carry Out the Plan
Look Back 9

10. Algebra: Patterns and Sequences
Algebra: Patterns and Sequences Expressions and Equations Integers & Coordinate Graphing
Algebra provides the language through which we communicate the patterns in mathematics.
Students will extend patterns, write and use rules to extend patterns using both words and algebraic symbols.
Students will identify, translate, and write algebraic equations.
Write and evaluate exponential expressions.
Use Order of Operations.
Write and solve one step equations using all four operations with positive numbers.
