Classwork - Tables presented HW problems, we discussed a problem from Would You Rather Math, and began solving equations with Menu Math.
Homework - none Classwork - Table groups presented homework solutions (including the balance problems). We did a few problems multiplying and dividing fractions using rectangles so we could SEE what was actually happening. The Rational Numbers Unit tests were returned - there is still work to do with fractions and integers! We worked on a few more balance problems.
Homework - Friday's problems. Classwork - We are beginning our expressions and equations unit with Balance Puzzles. We are solving and writing equations for the puzzles. We are also going to really work on discussing some of the homework problems each day so topics from earlier years that students are having difficulties with can have more time in class.
Homework - Thursday's problems from the homework sheet. Classwork - We learned how to do the balance problems with the mobiles, then took our unit test. When the test was finished we worked on the balance problems.
Homework - finish the balance problems and do MONDAY'S problems from the hw sheet. Classwork - Review for our Unit Test (rational numbers) tomorrow. We went over the answers to the group quiz we had yesterday and discussed strategies for solving problems.
Homework - Tuesday's problems from the HW sheet Classwork - We continued to work on solving situation problems involving decimals and fractions. It is very helpful to draw pictures of the situation when dealing with fractions!
Homework - Friday's problems on the review sheet. Classwork - We discussed the homework problems, specifically #3 from last night. We worked on writing and solving more word problems.
Homework - Thursday's problems from the homework sheet. Classwork-we worked on the "problems to think about", and all work needs to be shown, answers in complete sentences. Before that we went over the fraction squares from yesterday, and the answers to the pig/baseball worksheet. It's very important to write the units that go with the numbers!
Homework-Wednesday's problems from the review sheet. Classwork - Fraction Boxes - listing a number as a fraction, decimal, percent, ratio, equivalent fractions, on a number line and as a drawing. Then finish "Problems to Think About" worksheet with groups.
