Class Topics: 10.21.13

In Common Core Math Six, students in 1, 3, and 4° began class by completing a Problem of the Day before beginning Lesson 3.7: Fraction and Decimals.  Students worked with converting between fractions and decimals and presenting their fraction answers in simplest terms.  

Students in 2° reviewed their Evening Practice with Mr. Giomini.  Lesson 3.4: Subtracting Integers was introduced, modeled, and practiced.  Mr. Giomini showed a Brain Pop video to help clarify the material. The students worked in small learning pods to complete several problems listed by Mr. Giomini.
Today's Learning Goals: The student will be able to...

• convert between fractions and decimals without the use of a calculator.  (1, 3, and 4°)
• simplify fractions using their greatest common factor.  (1, 3, and 4°)
• subtract integers.  (2°)
