• We are wrapping up Lesson 6: Multiplying and Dividing Rational Numbers.

• Last week students took notes in their spiral notebook to review skills from previous grades:
     -how to change improper fractions to mixed numbers and mixed to improper fractions
     -the rules for multiplying and dividing fractions
     -the rules for multiplying and dividing decimals

• Students have been using their notes, along with the integer rules, to practice multiplying and dividing fractions or decimals with negatives during stations. Finish up the stations work….we will finish going over the work before the quiz. 

• Lesson 6 QUIZ will be tomorrow!
