Today in Math 6 - 1 & 3°, students received their Concept Two: Integers and Rational Numbers posttest. Mr. Giomini displayed a graphical representation of the class's testing data. Questions that caused students the greatest difficulty were modeled for students.
During Math 6 - 2°, students spent time reviewing lessons 2.1 through 2.5 in class today in preparation for Friday's posttest.
Students in Math 6+ began Concept Three: Operations with Rational Numbers today. Mr. Giomini explained why students were learning how to divide fractions and modeled an algorithm for students to use when working with fractions and division.
Today's Learning Target(s): The student will be able to...
- understand solving an equation. (2°)
- use substitution to determine whether a given number in a specified set makes an equation true. (2°)
- interpret and compute quotients of fractions. (7°)
- solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions. (7°)
- fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide numbers using the standard algorithm for each operation. (all classes)
For Evening Practice, the student is expected to complete:
- Math 6 - 1 & 3: Post an answer to Mr. Giomini's Twitter question
- Math 6 - 2°: Begin work on the practice test from Mr. Giomini
- Math 6+: Pages 1 and 2
- All Classes: m > 10 minutes meaningful practice at Khan Academy
Mr. Giomini, I have found the number in the ones place of 3 to the two - thousand is 7. This is because if you calculate 3 to exponents through 12 you and notice there is a pattern of 3,9,7,1 in the ones place. From there you can find the value of 3 to the two - thousandth power and multiply that by three to find 2012 to the third power then if you follow the pattern the third number because 12 + 3 is 15 so the third number should give you the answer of 7 value which is the value in the ones place. - Colin Zakel
