Combining Like Terms

To start class today, let's review some like terms.  Complete the Khan activities before we start the new lesson about distributive property.

Like Terms 1

Like Terms 2 (have to solve before you combine terms)

Set Up Expressions

Properties of Additions and Multiplication

If you missed class yesterday, get some headphones and watch the video then do the bigideasmath assignment.

Algebraic Properties

Tuesday's Task list and activities

There are a couple of priorities today to complete before moving on to section 3.3 tomorrow.

 If you missed school yesterday, please check out the video from yesterday's post to help you complete the 3.2 assignment.

Tasks

1. Complete any missing or overdue Big Ideas Assignments
2.  Complete your mastery challenges on Khan on "the world of math"

3. Best Math Friends



4. Card Sharks



5. Red Remover



6. Just for fun

7. Three Slices



8. Math Defense

3.2 Vocabulary and math operations

More Expressions practice today

Yesterday we introduced the vocabulary for the chapter and started some practice, today we are going to continue to really cement those skills in our brains.

First, make sure your www.bigideasmath.com 3.1 assignment is complete.

Second, open a new tab, sign into www.khanacademy.org then come back here and work on the following skills.

Expressions with one variable

Expressions with two variables

Writing expressions (setting up the problem)

Writing expressions with variables (a little tougher)

Third, this is exactly the half way point of the school year.  88 days complete. (Well there was an ice day, but we'll count it.)  88 remaining.

Starting Algebraic Expressions today!

Here's what we covered today, along with some examples of how to set up and solve them.

NEW!  check out the level up form on the right hand side.

Also, I decluttered the side bar to help you find things more easily!

Big Ideas assignment for 3.1 is live

Finally, here's a video if you missed or want to see the lesson from another perspective

Chapter 6 test today!

After you get done with the test here are your mathematical practice task.

You will get your results when I return and you return on Tuesday.

6.1 Integers and 6.2 Comparing Integers

We started the new chapter all about positive and negative numbers and how they relate.  Most of the day I am going to be giving the advice to "make a number line."

New vocabulary for today is:
- positive
- negative
- opposites

Although these are not "new" they are probably used in a different way than before.

Here are the answers to the Tuesday 6.2 Notes problems.
