master those objectives!

last week, 6th, 7th, and 8th grade had their first math test (chapter 1 test), where they were tested over 8 or 9 objectives.  the goal in math is to master each objective (lesson) that they are taught and tested over.  in order to "master" the objective, they had to get all problems correct the dealt with that specific objective. 

on my "math wall" in class, the students' names and objectives are listed. if they mastered the objective, they have an "X" by that objective. otherwise, it is left blank and will be filled in once they master the objective! (if you do not know which ones you did not master, please e-mail me this weekend and i'll let you know!)

if they did not master each objective, each student now has a chance to master those objectives through an online assignment...

(they will receive extra credit towards their test for mastering these additional objectives.)
