Today, students worked on a review of fractions and mixed numbers. We checked our Blue Diamond Assessments so that they could see how well they had performed on those skills. For homework, regular math classes should do the Bingo side of their worksheet on dividing fractions, while advanced math students should do page 288 (1-12) on solving multiplication and division of fraction equations. Work should be shown on 2 or 3 lines, on notebook paper, depending on whether or not they are using the shortcut (multiplying by the reciprocal, rather than dividing.)
On Tuesday, we will continue to review fractions and mixed numbers. We will have a test on all of the skills we have practiced with mixed numbers the week after we return from Thanksgiving break, late in the week. Advanced students should complete the Bingo side of their worksheet for homework, if they do not finish it in class today.
Have a terrific Thanksgiving!
