HOMEWORK       

Welcome to 6th grade Math Lab!

Our math series for this class is Connected Math 2. Shapes and Designs is the first unit in the geometry strand. It develops students' ability to recognize, display, analyze, measure, and reason about the shapes and visual patterns that are important features of our world.
