Test is moved from Friday to Tuesday's class. We will have one more class working with the metric system. I am available for extra help for students outside of class. More and more students are catching to how to handle the metric system and convert from one unit to another and also compare units. Remember the step/stair method. Move the decimal the same number of places you move steps and in the same direction left or right.
