Today, students in 1° Math 6 reviewed the Topic Three Midpoint Quiz for a majority of the class period to help iron out any misunderstanding on the assessment.

In Math 6+, students worked to translate word phrases, similar to the ones below, into algebraic expressions by matching them with their peers.

During 3 and 7° Math 6, students worked with a peer to complete pages 143 and 144 in their enVision workbook to help build fluency with writing algebraic expressions from word phrases.

Lesson Objectives: The student will be able to...
  • write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents.
  • write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers.
  • write expressions that record operations with numbers and with letters standing for numbers. 
  • identify parts of an expression using mathematical terms (sum, term, product, factor, quotient, coefficient).
