Homework note for 11/18

Thank you Alena for emailing me on this one. The homework due tomorrow is Investigation 3.4. You have had the chance to play the integer product game, so you should have no problems in answering the questions. While we are talking about changing the schedule...Since the 5th graders are walking through tomorrow, we will NOT have check-up 2.

Mathletes quick review of integers

The multiplying and the dividing algorithms are the same! It's nice that way. So...
(pos = positive, neg = negetive)

Dividing:
  • pos / pos= pos
  • neg / neg = pos
{if the signs are the same, then the answer is pos}
  • pos / neg = neg
  • neg / pos = neg
{if the signs are different, then the answer is neg}

Homework for the night of 11/16

The homework due on Tuesday is 4-11, 33 in the third ace section. This assignment was originally due last Friday before the schedule change. The assignment sheet will follow soon.

Multiplying/dividing algorithm:

  • pos * pos = pos
  • neg * neg = pos
  • pos * neg = neg
  • neg * pos = neg

Here are the sub planss
1) Play these two videos and have the kids just watch them
an_adding_algorithm
an_subtraction_algorithem
2) Play the video for the warm up and follow the directions.
an_inv_25_warm_up
The warm-up and videos should take a bit longer then normal.
3) Play the launch for investigation 2.5
an_inv_25_launch
4) If students finish early, they can start their homework. The assignment that is supposed to be due on Wednseday is really due on Thursday.
5) Make sure a volunteer student checks homework.

Sorry about the messy desk area.

Thanks,

an inv 2.2 answers

a5a) -4 a5b) -2 1/4 a5c) 1/2 a5d) -3/4

c) No, subtraction is not communitive. In other words, changing the order of a subtraction problem will change the answer. 7-(-8) does not equal -8 - 7. Addition is communitive. 7 + -8 does equal -8 + 7.
