Final cumulative tests are used to determine individual weaknesses in the math skills necessary to move on to the next level of math. These tests are not graded, but rather used to give students an idea of areas they should study over the course of the summer. Students interested in reviewing specific skills should use the guidelines that follow:
Trans Math:
Tuesday - June 1: Basic applications, negative integers, order of operations, decimals.
Wednesday - June 2: Fractions, ratios, proportions, percentages, probability.
*Students interested in studying pre-algebra over the summer need to demonstrate mastery in all areas of this test.
*Pre-algebra books and study packets will be available on Friday, June 4. See me!
Pre-Algebra:
Wednesday - June 2: Evaluating expressions (order of operations & exponents), writing verbal expressions, inequalities (yuk, remember?), equation busting, and simplifying like terms using all operations.
Thursday - June 3: Prime factorization, GCFs & LCDs, multiplying and simplifying fractions with variables, applications with percents/ratios/proportions, solving for the missing side of triangles/rectangles, scale drawings (congruent sides), and MAYBE the Pythagorean Theorem (I haven't written that part yet).
*Pre-Algebra BOOKS are due this Thursday!
