Class Topics: 11.05.14

In Common Core Math Six today, students received their Chapter Four Midpoint Quiz back in class.  Students then worked in small groups with peers to go through five stations that modeled all skills from the midpoint quiz again.  At each station was an index card with an answer as well as work to allow students to check their understanding.  Once they were able to complete the task, students worked on their evening practice.

The Harvard Glacier in Alaska is advancing at a rate

of about 0.055 m per day.  At this rate, how long will 

it take the glacier to advance 20 m?  Round your answer to 

the nearest hundredth.  

Today's Learning Goals: The student will be able to...

• fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the standard algorithm for each operation. 
• use variables to represent numbers.
• solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations.  
• apply and extend previous knowledge with multiplication and division to work with fractions.

For Evening Practice, the student is expected to...

• complete page 24 in Chapter Four.
