Spring Break and Math

As spring break starts next Friday, I am planning to give the students a very long homework packet that they can begin on Tuesday. It's fairly questionable as to why the upcoming state exams (April 23rd) are taking place so soon after spring break (in the case of ELA, almost immediately). The kids are still in vacation mode and take some time to adjust. Nevertheless, I want to make sure that the students are prepared. There are very few teaching days in April.

Topics will include everything that we've learned from the beginning of the school year as well as plenty of word problems. I will be in Tokyo for the entire duration of the break, so I'm hoping that the kids will spend plenty of time studying and trying their best practicing. We have started to review already beginning with percents.
