What a long weekend! It's was great to see everyone today.
In sixth grade, we reviewed finding the Greatest Common Factor and the Least Common Multiple. This will be very helpful (essential) in our upcoming unit on fractions, decimals, and percents.
In seventh grade, we explored how the Associative, Commutative, and Distributive Properties of Addition and Multiplication allow us to simplify algebraic expressions. What's up next? Moving from simplifying algebraic expressions to solving algebraic equations.
We are trying out a new CoW format this week. Cow #14 will be formatted so that students receive one part per night that is due the next day. The reasoning and communication portion this week is focused on eliminating possibilities. This skill will be helpful later this spring when students will take the CRCT.
