Hello all! Here’s to our Team Building at Cheley Camp this week!

Here are the activities in my classroom on Monday and Tuesday this week.

 

This week in Integrated Algebra we near the completion of chapter 2. We have studied integer operations, (linear) algebraic pattern and graphs. On Monday and Tuesday we will use number families and patterns to formalize the rules for division of integers.

Middle School Mathematics, Stafford, Sept 29 – Oct 03

 

Welcome student and families. I look forward to seeing you this week during parent conferences.

 

This week in Integrated Algebra first we will review last weeks quiz covering word problems, integer operations and graphs in the coordinate plane. This week we focus on one, understanding subtraction of integers as addition of the opposite and two, understanding multiplication as repeated addition.
