*****ALL 7th graders entering 8th grade MUST Buy
"The Number Devil" by, Hans Magnus Enzensberger. I will be doing ON-LINE work with the students during the summer so please make sure your computers are ready to get a workout!!! The book is available at Borders and Barns & Nobel for around $20.

****I will be doing ON-LINE activities with our text publisher. All students are encouraged to work with me and go over basic skills during the summer. I will be checking my mail everyday so if anyone wants to jump on board just send me an e-mail and I will put you on my mail list for work and assignments. The students will not be graded on this work, however there are a few skills I would like them to keep up on for September. All 7th & 8th graders should know their integer rules (see below) as well as squares and square roots from 2 to 20.(see below) Any Questions??? Comments??? or Concerns??? just e-mail me!

****8th Grade Graduation Activities!!!!!!!!
Tuesday 6/10  Breakfast given for the 8th grade and their parents by the 7th grade and their parents is in Horner Hall@ St. Mary's at 8am.

Wednesday 6/11 Graduation @ St. Josaphat's Church @ 5:30pm. Parking on Cotton and Silverwood Streets as well as the Court Yard off Grape Street.

Wednesday 6/11 Graduation Dinner @ St. Josaphat's Church Hall after mass. Any family who has not paid for this dinner please contact Mrs. Schowerer for further instructions. This is not a Dinner that is included in the Graduation Fee. You are not required to attend. You must pay separately for this event.

To date, our approximate expenses are as follows:

DJ                    275
Food                500
Decorations      300
Gift to School    200  (not sure what it will be as of yet)
Gift to Grads     900  (also not sure, but figuring @16 per grad)

This comes to $2175.00.  It is my understanding that $20 of our graduation fee is to be used for expenses.  That comes to $1080.00.  Plus $200, from a donation to the class, equals $1280.00.  We are short about $900.00.  That's where the $20 per family comes in.

******INTEGER RULES***********
Addition- to add integers with like signs, find the sum and use the sign of the addends.
4+3=7      -4+-3=-7

To add integers with unlike signs find their difference and use the sign of the integer farther from 0.
+2 + -3= -1 and -4 + +1= -3

An integer plus its opposite is zero. +6 + -6 = 0

Subtraction- To subtract and integer add its opposite!
-4 - -1= -3 and +3 - -5 = +8

Multiplying - the product of two integers with like signs is positive.  -5 x-6 = 30

The product of integers with unlike signs is negative.
-5 x +6 = -30

Dividing - The quotient of integers with like signs is positive.  -30/-5 = 6

The quotient of integers with unlike signs is negative.  -20/4 = -5
