Module #5/Lessons 1-5 QUIZ RECAP

Here is the quiz covering Lessons 1-5 in Module #5.  Our biggest difficulties were in decomposing polygons.  I went over these problems in class today.  Here are the answers and how to decompose the shapes.  There are other ways to do it, but I tried to show you the easiest way.  Remember... if it's not a rectagle or a triangle, you have to break it up to make those shapes before using the formulas for area!

Module #5/Lesson #5: The Area of Polygons Using Composition and Decomposition (DAY 2)

Module #4/Lesson #25: Algebraic Equations (DAY 2)

Day 2 includes HW Solutions and Introduction to 2-STEP Equations.

Module #4/Lesson #25: Algebraic Equations

Skipping ahead to cover Algebraic Equations which are really the cornerstone of Module #4 and must be covered before assessments next week.

Module #4/Lesson #18/19: Writing and Evaluating Addition and Subtraction Expressions

We are skipping lessons 14-17 since we have covered it through other lessons.

Module #4/Lesson #13: Writing Division Expressions

Module #4/Lesson #11: Distributing Expressions

Module #4/Lesson #12: Distributing Expressions

We did Lesson #12 before Lesson #11 because it made more sense.  Tomorrow, we will do Lesson #11 and upload it.

Module #4/Lesson #5: Exponents (Second Half)

Module #4/Lesson #5: Exponents

Welcome to Module 4!  Module 4 is our biggest module of the year.  We will be modifying the lessons a bit to make up some time without losing the key concepts.  For instance, we are skipping Lessons 1-4 since it's easy to cover those concepts throughout the course of the remainging lessons.

Lessons 5 and 6 done today and later in the week cover exponents and order of operations, which are concepts that you should have familiarity with from elementary school.  After that, we get into the bulk of what Module 4 is all about... ALGEBRA!
