Final Practice 5/19

5th grade ixl - O.4 (This is basic review for Order of Operations)

8th grade ixl - C.8

6th grade ixl - HH.1

Chapter 9 - What to Study

Wednesday we will take our Chapter 9 test. Just like on our practice test, this test will include three major points of study:

Solving equations (don't forget integer rules!)

When solving an equation, perform the opposite operation to both sides of the equation to isolate the variable. If you're solving a two-step equation, add or subtract first; then, multiply or divide to isolate the variable. You can always plug your answer back in to the original equation to check and see if the two sides balance out.

Function Tables

Plug in the values for "x" to solve for "y." Remember your integer rules here as well. Look for a pattern if you are asked to find the function rule (in other words, how are we getting from x to y?).

Graphing Coordinates

For some function tables, you will be asked to graph your (x,y) values as coordinates. Don't forget - walk into the building (right to left) before taking the elevator (up and down). 

Reminder

Don't forget to study tonight for your equations quiz tomorrow. It will include solving addition and subtraction equations.

IXL skills for practice during our impending snowstorm!

6th Grade, Z.6 - Solve one-step equations with whole numbers (this will include multiplying and dividing, which we have not yet covered; just do your best on the addition/subtraction equations)

6th Grade, O.10 - Integer Review

Homework Update

Hello all! As stated in class today, you will have a word problem or two every night for homework. (Effort grade) We will review the problem in class the next day. A similar problem will appear on a drill sometime that week. Please be sure to record the problem correctly in class when it is assigned.

6th grade Math - 0.10 (covers all operations)

Quiz Tomorrow!

Please study all your integer rules for addition and subtraction - your quiz is tomorrow. Remember:

When adding two negatives, just add like normal and keep the sign.

When adding numbers with two different signs, do "integer wars."

When subtracting, use the KFC method to turn the problem into an addition problem, and then follow the corresponding procedure above.
