Classwork - Equations Test Retake or puzzle activity for those students not retaking the test. Any student may retake the test, but the new score is your score - NOT the highest score. Students with high scores need to really think about if they want to retake the test for just a few points - because your score could go down if you make arithmetic errors!
Homework - none Now that we are using our supplemental textbook, there is a website that has help for homework. You can see hints and answers to the homework problems given each night. Go check it out, especially if you need help!
Classwork - We finished the Algebra Walk lesson and worked on writing equations for word problems, as well as solving the equations and writing the solution in a sentence. Homework - the odd problems on the Word Problem worksheet.
Classwork - we corrected the Equations Review for the kids that want to retake the Equations Test. Students going on the Leadership Retreat will take it Thursday at Lunch, all other students will take it Friday during math. We did the Algebra Walk and made human graphs!
Homework - Problems 1-19, 1-21 through 1-23 Classwork - I passed out the Practice problems for the Equations Test retake, which will be on Friday. Practice problems and Test Corrections are due Wednesday.
We started using our supplemental text book today in class. Online books can be purchased for $10 - I'll show the classes and post a separate link. Homework will be in packets for each chapter. Homework - Finish practice problems by Wednesday, finish test corrections by Wednesday, and Problems 1-12 through 1-16 in the packet tonight!. Classwork - We worked on distributing a negative and combining like terms, then fraction multiplication and division. I really want the kids to understand why it is more efficient to simplify their fractions BEFORE they multiply. Tests were passed back, each has the key attached. There will be a test retake at the end of next week, students that would like to take the test again need to completely correct the test returned today, and will get more practice problems to do before the retake. We will let the kids know on Monday when the retake is.
Homework - Test Corrections, and 4 more KenKen puzzles. Classwork - Some students needed to finish their test, so 15 minutes additional time was given today in class, other students worked on KenKen. Afterwards we worked on fraction operations and Order of Operations.
Homework - do 4 of the KenKen's on the worksheet. Classwork - Equations test. The students will have an additional 15 minutes tomorrow to work on their tests.
Homework - worksheet given in class. Classwork - We matched the area models to the equations then did a team equation solving.
Homework - finish one of the team problems if the answer was not correct, plus the equation practice worksheet. TEST on equations is tomorrow! |
