MATH
12, 20, 34, 42

If you were to graph these numbers, what would be a reasonable scale? Well, you scale would need to go from 0 - 42, at least so all the numbers could fit. And then you would need to think of what interval you would use. Since most of the numbers have a difference of 10 between them, you could reasonably use intervals of 10 to count them

Finish worksheet 8.1 to practice this concept for tonight's homework.

HUMANTIES
This week, we're taking a closer look at punctuation. Today's mark was the infamous comma. How and when do we use this wonder of written mechanics?

1. Between words or groups of words in a series
Be sure your business letter is brief, courteous, and correct.

2. Before a conjunction in a compound sentence.
Neal sketched the cartoon, and Claire wrote the caption.

Remeber you would not use a comma for the following sentence because it is not compound:
We stayed in for recess because of the rain.
