Proportions

This is a simple proportion problem.

Proportions

This is a perfect example of finding equivalent ratios, by Mr. Khan does it a little differently than I do.

Unit Rate

We will watch this video on Thursday (12/04/2014) as well as the proportions video lesson.

Absolute value

This video shows you how to find absolute value of a number and how to do some integer problems with the absolute value, which we will do this week and a lot next week.

Multiplying Integers

Remember the rules of integers:  (-) x (-) = (+)
                                                     (+) x (+) = (+)
                                                     (-) x (+) = (-)
                                                     (+) x (-) = (-)

Adding Integers

This is a short video over adding integers.

Subtracting Integers

This is a good little video over subtracting integers. We will do some of these on Tuesday using the elevator method with a number line.

Multiplying fractions

I know you guys have mastered this, your grades on the practice and the quiz have proven that, but it is still here for reference anytime you need it.

Dividing Decimals

This will be another concept we will be covering tomorrow along with dividing fractions. It involves long division, only it has decimals in it. It is not too difficult if you take great notes and pay attention in class.

Dividing Fractions

We will be watching this video tomorrow, since we will be exploring this concept in fraction operations.

Ordering Integers

We will be watching this video this week during class.

Math at a glance (09/29 to 10/03/2014)

Hey guys,

We really need to work on our multiplication tables and division tables as well. I assigned flash cards to people in class, and I will be calling home and checking from time to time with folks as to whether or not you are using them, especially if your grades begin to slip, so beware kiddos. 

We will continue to order fractions, decimals, and percents, and integers for the rest of the week, and through Wednesday of nest week, and there will be a Unit 2 Exam next Thursday, October 9, 2014. We will begin Unit 3 on Friday,  the 10th. 

We will be using fraction pie pieces and whiteboards for our exercises for the rest of the week as well as an outdoor activity or two, and we will be doing Fast on Facts from now on every day. There will be a Fast on Facts test on Friday, so you guys need to review, practice, and study those flash cards and ask for help from me in class, that is what I am there for........ to help you guys be a success. There will be a Quiz on Wednesday over ordering fractions, decimals, and percents from least to greatest.

Least Common Multiple (LCM)

We will be looking at Least Common Multiple on Monday, and this will be the segue for finding common denominator for fractions. We will practice LCM until Wednesday, and then we will begin ordering fractions with unlike denominators.

Ordering Fractions/Decimals

Here is a video explaining how to order fractions, decimals, and percents.

Ordering Fractions

This is a video on ordering fractions. We will talk about least common multiple and Greatest common factor, concepts needed to order fractions, on Friday morning and next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.

Converting decimals to percents

Converting percents to decimals

This should help us in our study of converting percents to decimals.

Converting percents to decimals

We will be watching this tomorrow, since there are some of you that are a little fuzzy with this concept.

Decimals to fractions and mixed numbers
