Class Overview: 4th 9 Weeks
Course 1: Math facts and fractions are still being practiced on a daily basis. Geometric formulas, proportions, functions, and decimals to fractions to percents are emphasized this nine weeks.
Algebra 1: Students will solve absolute-value equations/inequalities; solve quadratic equations in three different ways; solve permutation/combination problems and interest problems; graph several different types of functions; divide polynomials and use trigonometric ratios as well as continue to review and expand previous lessons.
6th Grade Science (Biology): Students will answer the question, "Where have all the creatures gone?" by studying the trout population in Lake Michigan. Students will use observation, experiments, and data to determine the answer to the question.
8th Grade Science (Biology): Students will answer the question, "What's going on inside of me?" by studying how the food we eat and the air we breathe are used by different systems of the body. Students will use microscopes, study simple systems, and differentiate between diffusion and osmosis.
