Day 160: Multistep Equations with Fractions / Surface Area

Today in 1 and 3° Math 6 and Math 6+, students viewed the video posted below to help with today's skill: Solving Multistep Equations with Fractions.  Students spent time practicing the skill both as a class and in small groupings of peers.

Distributive property to simplify:Incorporating Fractions

In Math 6 during 2°, students continued their work with unfolding three-dimensional prisms to construct their surface area.  Mr. Giomini introduced a new formula to the students to help with calculating the surface area for right rectangular prisms.

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

• understand solving an equation or inequality as a process of answering a question. (1, 3, and 7°)
• use substitution to determine whether a given number makes an equation or inequality true. (1, 3, and 7°)
• find the surface area of a right rectangular prism. (2°)

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

• 1 and 3° -
• Handout from teacher.
• Have 100% of 6th Grade Khan Skills mastered by May 27th.
• 2° -
