Progress Reports Were sent home today!!

Combine like terms together, no homework on this.
Algebraic Expressions: turn phrases into mathematical sentences (numbers and symbols)

Students are aware of their grades and have had opportunities to correct any grades lower than 70. Some have chosen not to and it shows. I have shared my expectations with them and I hope you will let them know what you expect as well.  Congrats to all those doing well! Math will serve you well in the future!!

ALGEBRA

Notes are below the Assignment! The assignment has 22 problems and I did half with each class but not the same problems with each class. Students need to complete for homework if not finished in class.

FRIDAY

Thursday students learned to multiply fractions.  They just multiply numerator by numerator and denominator by denominator. Then simplify in lowest terms. We also discussed that if you multiply by a fraction less than 1 your amount decreases. If you multiply by a whole number greater than 1 the amount increases.

Today, students are dividing fractions. Multiplicative Inverse- Keep the first fraction, change the operation to multiplication, and flip the second fraction (reciprocal).

PLEASE REMEMBER, QUIZ REDO ON INTEGERS! Due Monday or the grade they had sticks.
Thank you!
