We heard from the problems that students produced from restaurant menus: How many different meals are possible if you choose a meat, a vegetable, a salad, a dessert, and a drink? Can you have nothing?
Homework for Wednesday is to finish the Logic Notebook if you haven’t already done so.
We worked on our 3-dimensional fractal made of tetrahedrons which combine to become larger and larger tetrahedrons. Look for a picture tomorrow of the whole thing!
Homework for Wednesday night is to finish the Logic Notebook if you haven’t already.
We are working on exponent rules in Chapter 8 and will practice keeping them all straight. For today we also played Green Globs again to remember how to work with equations of lines.
There is no homework for the long weekend but the Logic Notebook is due Wednesday, February 22. Enjoy!
We made great counting problems using restaurant menus and choosing wonderful choices. The Multiplication Counting Principal says we can multiply the number of choices at each step of the way to get the total number of possibilities.
There is no homework for the long weekend but the Logic Notebook is due on Wednesday, February 22.
Counting problems are a topic we are going to add to our work in Chapter 2. We get to use the Multiplication Counting Principal to compute the total number of combinations possible.
Homework for Wednesday night is the worksheet with counting problems. Don’t forget about the Logic Notebook which is due Wednesday.
More exponent rules today! Now we have the power rule, the product rule and the quotient rule. Lots of practice with them is a good, good idea.
Homework for Wednesday night is to read section 8-3, pp 469-72, #4-19. Don’t forget about the Logic Notebook which is due Wednesday.
The beginning of the exponent rules! Chapter 8 is full of problems simplifying expressions with exponents. Be sure every rule makes good sense to you before moving on!
Homework for Tuesday night is to read section 8-2, pp 464-67, #4-20. There will be a review quiz Wednesday. This could cover any material through chapter 7.
The quiz over sections 4,5,7,8 is tomorrow, Wednesday, and to practice in class we made up our own quiz questions to see what is tricky and what is an appropriate question.
Homework for Tuesday night is to study for the quiz over sections 4,5,7,8 of Chapter 2. There will be no review quiz this week (pretty sad).
We are reminding ourselves of the Multiplication Counting Principal and all the fun problems that come with it. It allows us to do probability, too! In class we worked with a partner to complete some counting problems.
