In Pre-Algebra today, students completed a Gallery Walk in preparation for their Chapter Six Mid-Chapter Quiz. We covered the following topics in the Gallery Walk:
- area and perimeter of squares, rectangles and trapezoids.
- utilized The Pythagorean Theorem to solve real-life problems.
- used our understanding of Pi to solve problems dealing with area and circumference of a circle.
In class, students...
- collaborated with peers to solve twelve different problems.
- self-checked responses to questions using answers provided to each question.
For homework, students SHOULD:
- complete 1 – 18 on page 298.
Good luck, everybody!
ReplyDeleteThe Hardest problem on the test for me was the second one were you had to explain which one would need the least fencing materials that was the hardest one because I couldn't really find words which would describe the way i solved and new that but then when I read it aloud I realized that its extremely easy and all I had to do was read it aloud

The hardest question on the test was number one because I thought it was the side bricks on the wall.

The hardest question on the test was probably number one. This question was the hardest because I don't recall that we ever reviewed this problem and I had an idea on how to solve it but I wasn't sure if it was right (the way I solved it).
