Our class learned how to add and subtract fractions that have mixed numbers today! Here are the notes students took down from the board:

We worked 6 problems from the front of the homework and 6 problems from the back of the homework together to ensure that everyone understood the procedures and how to simplify their final answer! So, out of the 24 problems on this homework sheet, 12 of them were done together in class! Hopefully, all students were zoned in to what we were doing and copying everything down that we did together on the board!

HOMEWORK FOR THURSDAY NIGHT, SEPTEMBER 27th

Adding and Subtracting Mixed #s HW for 9-27-2018

Students continued with the same skill as yesterday, converting fractions with unlike denominators into like denominators so they can add/subtract them! Our focus today was on subtracting these type of fractions! Refer to your notes from Tuesday if you get stuck! And show your work!

HOMEWORK FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT, SEPTEMBER 26TH

Subtracting Fractions HW for 9-26-2018

The end of the first nine weeks will be next week! We are having our final gold test of the nine weeks next Wednesday! More information concerning the skills to be assessed on that test will be coming! Stay posted!

Adding Fractions with Unlike Denominators was our topic of study today in class! Students took down the steps to converting the fractions into like denominators before adding them! Here’s a glance at the notes we took:

And of course we worked several examples together for everyone to practice! And on their homework sheet, we worked the first few together to ensure accuracy!

HOMEWORK FOR TUESDAY NIGHT, SEPTEMBER 25TH

Adding Fractions HW for 9-25-2018

Students are finishing up their review of converting mixed numbers to improper fractions and improper fractions to mixed numbers! Very easy skill and one that most are already familiar with! Here are the notes we’ve taken over the last several days on these skills:

HOMEWORK FOR MONDAY NIGHT, SEPTEMBER 24TH……FRONT & BACK!!

Converting Mixed #s and Improper Fractions HW 9-24-2018

We are finishing up our study of LCM and GCF today! Students took many notes on these skills (see their math notebook) over the last few days. Tonight’s homework had 20 problems, but I worked 4 problems on each side with them, reducing the number of problems they have to complete on their own down to 12 problems! Additionally, students had a few minutes at the end of class to complete 1 or 2 more before the bell. Hopefully, students will only have a few problems left to complete at home!

Here’s what we worked together in class:

HOMEWORK FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT, SEPTEMBER 19TH

LCM p6 and GCF p7 front & back HW for 9-19-2018

Remember to show your work!

Students were given a study guide today in class to help them prepare for tomorrow’s big gold test! The skills that will be assessed tomorrow include:

adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing decimals

We worked a few problems together as a class to ensure understanding of procedures and accuracy. Students were given ample time to complete the majority of the study guide in class, but whatever was not finished will need to be completed at home tonight as homework (there’s a front AND a back to the study guide!!!).  Remember to use your math notebook if you get stuck……the yellow chart about Decimal Operations will be extremely helpful!

Study Guide #2 for Big Gold Test HW for 9-11-2018

Students continued their study of dividing decimals by decimals today in class! I think we are beginning to be old pros at this skill! We worked several examples together in class today. Here’s what your student should have in their math notebook:

We have a BIG GOLD TEST this Wednesday, Sept 12th. The skills that will be assessed include:

adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing decimals
