7th Grade: We will continue working with ratio and proportion. Specifically this week we will begin using tables, graphs, and cross multiplication to determine relationship proportionality.
7.RP.A.2 Recognize and represent proportional relationships between
quantities.
8th Grade: Scientific Notation!
8.EE.A.3 Use numbers expressed in the form of a single digit times an integer power of 10 to estimate very large or very small quantities, and to express how many times as much one is than the other (scientific notation)
8.EE.A.4 Perform operations with numbers expressed in scientific notation, including problems where both decimal and scientific notation are used. Use scientific notation and choose units of appropriate size for measurements of very large or very small quantities (e.g., use millimeters per year for seafloor spreading). Interpret scientific notation that has been generated by technology.
