Assignment: Supermarket Math
The lesson and directions are all in our Google Classroom. Make sure to turn it in by filling out the worksheet in your "assignments" list and then submit it online. If you send it to me via email, then it shows up as missing in the book ... let me know if this is still unclear to you!

Homework for Wednesday, March 18
Assignment: Choice! Proportions A or B
*Link to A (basics)
*Link to B (more difficult)
I'm going to try something new here ... I created an answer key in our Google Classroom and then submitted both worksheets, Proportions A (basics) and Proportions B (more difficult), into the folder. Then, I think, you can fill out the answer key on the assignment sheet and turn it in. If this doesn't work, there are copies of each assignment here, but you will still need to use the answer key that I am supplied there. Whew!
*You should be able to see the directions if you select the "view details" button, but I am also posting them here ...
Here are my expectations: please do the work in the way I am asking you to do, for now: multiply on the diagonal and then divide either straight up or across. The details for this are on the Mo'Help tab of my blog.*Do not use other methods of finding equivalent fractions/ratios/proportions at this time. Learn this algorithm first!*You do not need to turn in your work page, I am trusting you to do it.*Do not use a calculator, I am trusting you.
PLEASE use the "turn in" option for this assignment that is provided when you click on the assignment. Otherwise, it automatically shows up as missing and you will, I think, need to go back and submit it later to make it disappear. (?)

Here we go! Tuesday, March 17
Welcome! So this is your math class for a bit and it is a new experience for all of
us. I do hope to have some videos, links, and such, but we’re starting gently
today. I plan to develop a rhythm for us that is predictable and manageable.
We will have guided practice with keys and homework without, but as always my
late and redo policies apply. Work for the usual one-day turnaround for your
math assignments and you’ll be fine. Use this blog as a resource and check our
google classroom for updates. All of that practice I had you do reading my instructions
and looking for easter eggs will hopefully pay off here! 😀

I have a lot of cool things to do in this unit, but whether or not I can transfer them
meaningfully to an online experience remains to be seen!
Please give me feedback as we go. Please send me an email if you have
questions and please know that while I will be most quickly responding during
my “office hours” of 10:30 - 12:30, but you can contact me any time.
I will reply as quickly as I can when I’m not working in the yard, cooking, taking
a walk, etc. Use your parents and siblings as resources,
but don’t be afraid to simply explore when I ask you to!

Today's links are to both the instruction sheet
(which includes the above paragraphs) and the assignment sheet itself.
If you have trouble turning them in via our google classroom, just send them
via email until we get things figured out. They should all be in our google
classroom, but my confidence in that is questionable in this moment. Ha!

Update: Monday, March 16
Greetings, students!
I have sent you all an invite to my Google Classroom, but we will see what that means over the course of these next several weeks. I do plan to continue to use my blog, somehow, which might mean linking it to the Google thing ... but that remains to be explored.
As you are patient with me in this new way of sharing math information, I will be patient and clear with you. So don't fret! We can do this together.
I will miss sharing space with you in the classroom, but look forward to when we return to school. Until then, stay tuned and take care!
Mo ;-)

Homework for Wednesday, March 11
Assignment? Nope ;-)
So, here we are in the limbo of completing the winter trimester and being unsure about when we might be doing our schooling offsite.
Fortunately (?), today was the last day to turn in late assignments, so the homework for the trimester is complete. I'm not saying that I have the backlog all graded, but I'm on it, so don't plan on completing anything else unless you were absent the past two days, as a few of you were.
As for the fractions test, if we complete it on Thursday I still may not count it for the winter trimester since the opportunity for retests in the next week is waning. We'll see, just stay tuned!
And don't let it worry you.

Homework for Tuesday, March 10
Assignment: Fraction Packet
*Liam H and Owen, your only option is to complete whichever Quizlet sets will help you prepare for the test; I do not have online copies of the packet ... sorry!
Fraction Packet Instructions -
This is YOUR packet. This packet is intended to provide you with practice in any area that you feel needs practicing. Check over your work … if your answers are incorrect, redo them so that you can see how to find the correct answer. Try the “Challenge/Exploration” problems if you are confident in your fraction accuracy.
Your Responsibilities:
*Work for 10 - 15 minutes.
*Check the answer key and correct your work. The link to the answer key is below.
*Determine if you want to practice more … you may if you want to, but it is not required!
*You do NOT need to attach a note this time.
*You may certainly add notes to your notecard if you realize more would help! Factors, multiples, and general reminders to yourself are all awesome when you are under test pressure.
Due: TURN IN THE PACKET BEFORE THE TEST ON WEDNESDAY… you will not get credit for a packet turned in AFTER the test. This is a “complete” or “incomplete” task.
Relax! You know this stuff … Mo ;-)
Other Notes:
*Test corrections are Wednesday homework and due Thursday. Late corrections will not receive credit.
*Retests for fractions will be NEXT week. They will not necessarily be available before your conference.
*I think I'm done!!!! Please send me an email if you notice any incorrect answers as I am doing it in speed mode, and, as you know traveling with too much speed is dangerous!

Math Update for Monday, March 9
Hello everyone, I hope your weekend is going well!
I wanted to reassure everyone that due to missing school this Monday, I am moving the fractions math test to Wednesday of this coming week. Therefore we will do our in-class review and "packet" homework on Tuesday. Everything just shifts a day!
Good health and happiness to all,
Mo ;-)

Homework for Thursday, March 5
Assignment: Test Notes Notecard
Yes, I totally understand that many of you "do not need" notes for the test on Tuesday, but that isn't really the point of this assignment ... so read on.
You are to create one 3 x 5 notecard (front and back) of notes, hints, fact tables, definitions, reminders, whatever, that would be good to have available for the fractions test.
You MAY use this notecard during the test.
You will NOT be able to access any other notes during the test.
This is an effort based grade, so even if you don't plan to use the card, make the card a good one that would be useful to someone!
Due Friday
*play participants can turn theirs in on Monday if desired, but notecards will not be accepted after Tuesday.

Assignment: Fraction Division Choice
*M - Multi-Skill practice - Link!
Not quite ready for solid division? This worksheet contains simplifying, multiplication, and division problems to practice.
*D - Division Practice - Link!
Practice, but only the basics ... you will need to be able to divide mixed numbers by the test as well.
*D+ - Division Practice - Link!
This one includes division with mixed numbers. Be sure to change TO improper fractions before you flip the second fraction and multiply.
*N - LCMs of Monomials - Link!
This is only for those of you who have been cruising along through the other variable assignments. This is NOT a good assignment to begin with.
