Assignment: Individual Cockroach Sheet
This work is to show that you understand a) how to plot a line graph from data and b) explain what you see in that graph. Your group graph is about teamwork, but this is all you. ;-)
There is also room to talk about how teamwork is going for you, specifically your team, but here you can speak to what works and what does not work for you. So elaborate!
If you have questions, please see me in room #1 at break tomorrow or during the CWP.
Due Wednesday (your next math class)

Assignment: Walking Along - Link!
This assignment begins our work with line graphs.
Using the given color key, fill in the table with the points, connect the dots, and complete each of the three lines.
Then answer the questions at the bottom of the page! If you have questions about the wording, just ask someone, eh?
*Some people like to create a pencil grid over the graph so they can draw their lines more accurately ... optional, but a great idea. ;-)

Assignment: Order of Ops! (Mo's Choice)
Yes, I selected your homework tonight based upon my expert analysis of your pre-quiz. I studied the kinds of mistakes you made and read your comments ... did you need help? Were you confident? Etc.
So if you misplaced your assignment, you aren't really going to know which one I assigned you unless either a) you remember or b) you email me. However, I will be at Ella's soccer game until around 7:30, so you won't get a response until later ... just keep that in mind.
These assignments are listed in what I feel is the order of difficulty.
If you feel the assignment is too difficult, please select one from the assignments listed above yours in the list. If you feel it is too simple, you must do it anyway (it may be review, but you missed them on the pre-quiz!) then when it's your turn to choose you can try whatever you feel like.
So here they are:
*Basic Ops - Link!
*More Practice - Link!
*Exponents - Link!
*Test Level - Link!
*Longer Ops - Link!

Assignment: The Ups and Downs of Shopping - Link!
The directions are on this assignment, but here is my advice:
1) Draw yourself a picture
2) Think about the word clues they are giving you. They do matter.
3) Work back through your solution by reading the story again to make sure that your answer works with the information.
4) Think about reading it to another family member and showing them how your "proof" works. It's fine!
Your proof, or work on the page, is worth up to 2 points, so make it good! I need to be able to follow your thinking without you there to explain it to me.
The answer itself is worth one point if correct. There IS an answer meaning you DO have enough information to answer how many floors the department store has.

Assignment: Boocoo Booples (link!)
Are you confused yet? Clearly Kyle is confused and needs your help figuring out this strange monetary system.
HINT: it is NOT our monetary system and does not match up with our coins, so figure out how to organize your money and THEN solve the problems. Zoe had a great idea of creating a table, but how you organize it is up to you as you are the one who has to make "cents" of it, eh?!?

Assignment: Pre-Quiz Operations
This is not a test, I repeat, this is not a test.
This is a pre-quiz to assess how well you know your order of operations!
*Try every problem. Either guess or seek help, but do something. It is important that I see where you are in this process.
*Remark on every problem. You can say something like, "I had a lot of help with this one," to "I had no idea what to do," to "thumbs down." Future assignments will be based upon your successes on this worksheet, so it is important to acknowledge your strengths and weaknesses.
*I will grade this assignment as complete, partially complete, or incomplete ... hopefully these are self-explanatory. 😄
Due WEDNESDAY for full credit.
*Late papers will receive only partial credit.

Assignment: Division Choice #2
(the titles of the various assignments are the links)
Today you have a choice of 3 assignments. Remember that you owe me one, but may do all three if you would like!
R - Division Practice - This worksheet is for those who would like more practice in long division with remainders before venturing into the world of decimals.
D - Dividing by Single & Two Digits - This worksheet is for those who would like to try converting their answers into decimals or would just appreciate practicing on possibly rusty skills.
W - Dividing by Whole Numbers - This worksheet is for those confident in their long division with decimals. Note that this worksheet contains both division that results in a decimal answer AND some begin with decimal dividends!
There is a link on the Mo'Help tab of this blog that gives further instruction in long division.

Assignment: Division Choice
*NO Calculators
*ALL work must be shown on the worksheet or another sheet of paper as that is the point of this assignment. The important thing is that I see how you are thinking! ;-)
*Answers may be in the form of decimals, fractions, or with remainders. Your choice!
*If you are using decimals, please stop calculating after three decimal digit places.
B) Basics - Link! - this option gives you basic practice in division with dividing by single digits.
M) Mixed - Link! - this option has division with a little of both: single digit and double digits; for those wanting to venture just a bit.
T) Two Digit - Link! - this option is dividing by double digits; same steps with more challenging numbers and those with remainders, decimals ...
You must complete one of the above options, but any one will do. Thank you!
