Expressions and Equations:  Homework is to complete the handout on ‘combining like terms’ (see homework attachments).  Shade all like terms then write the simplified expression.

Khan Academy is 25 minutes due by Friday.  Here are the skills:

1.  Multiplying Decimals like 4 x 0.6
2. Multiplying Decimals like 2.45 x 3.6
3. Multiplying Decimals like 0.847 x 3.54
4. Expression Value Intuition

Number System:  Tomorrow will be our last SLOT quiz on multiplying decimals. It’s probably a good idea to work on your Khan skills for this topic.

Expressions and Equations:  We are using the algeblocks to combine like terms.  In class, you may or may not have completed ISN page 52 and the handout (see homework attachments).  These should be completed if not done in class.

Make sure you have your colors of the algeblocks (yellow, green, light and dark orange).  We will be moving on from drawing them, but you will need these colors to shade like terms.

Khan Academy is 25 minutes due by Friday.  Here are the skills:

1.  Multiplying Decimals like 4 x 0.6
2. Multiplying Decimals like 2.45 x 3.6
3. Multiplying Decimals like 0.847 x 3.54
4. Expression Value Intuition

Expressions and Equations:  We began learning about how units and variables are represented using the algeblocks.  Please remember to bring your colored pencils with you next week.  We need green, yellow, light orange and dark orange.

Khan Academy is 25 minutes for next week.  Here are the topics skills so you can get started:

1.  Multiplying Decimals like 4 x 0.6
2. Multiplying Decimals like 2.45 x 3.6
3. Multiplying Decimals like 0.847 x 3.54
4. Expression Value Intuition
