We are already at Week 6 and we have accomplished many things in class. Students worked hard on learning procedures for class as well as PROPERTIES! This year for properties we are making sure to continue coming back to them throughout the year because we actually use them a lot more than we think we do when completing mathematical problems. But this week we are going to finish up our time with integers. Multiplying and dividing integers are quite fun because the rules are quite easy. We are also going to be learning about order of operations. This is something that students learned about in 6th grade but we, of course, have to make sure that we fully understand it because we will be solving 1-step and 2-step operations in the next few weeks. We will also be watching one of my favorite videos this week https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAgfnK528RA . This video is a great teaching tool. The host in the video explains how to use order of operations quite effectively and in a clear understandable manner.
