Our unit of study this week will focus on adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators. On Monday, students will learn an interesting technique to find the Least Common Denominator (LCD). This strategy should give them a quick way to determine the LCD when converting fractions to equivalent fractions in order to add or subtract them! We should have a quiz on fractions mid-week followed by a study guide for the 2nd nine weeks exam.

Our 2nd Nine Weeks Math Exam is scheduled for Wednesday, December 14th in all classes.
