Hi All!
In Green class, we continued to practice writing, graphing, and solving inequalities with one variable. We worked on some word problems, and remembered to flip the inequality symbol when multiplying or dividing by a negative number! For homework, complete the inequalities worksheet from class.
In Purple, Red, and Blue class, we took our first test on writing and solving equations. There is no homework tonight. Enjoy the night off! :)

What Did We Do Today?
Hi All!
In Green class, we started chapter 2. We learned how to write, solve, and graph inequalities. For homework, complete Page 77 #3-16 all. Most students were able to get a head start on these in class, but we will go over them tomorrow!
In Purple, Red, and Blue Class, we reviewed for our test that is tomorrow. We practiced word problems at our white boards, and played Quizlet Live! For homework, you must finish your review sheet. I will be checking it again tomorrow! Remember, answers are on the blog! :) Study, Study, Study!

Update & Homework
Hi All!
In Green class, we took our test on Chapter 1 today! There is no homework! Enjoy!
In Purple, Red, and Blue class, we learned how to determine how many solutions an equation with variables on both sides has. For homework, begin working on your review sheet. We will discuss questions you have on the review sheet tomorrow. You do not need to do all of it, but you should be spending about 15-20 minutes on it tonight!

We took notes on section 1.5--Rewriting Equations and Formulas. We then did a Scoot! activity, where you practiced rewriting formulas and equations. There is no homework tonight, but you do have a test on Tuesday of next week.
Reminder: I am available for extra help today after school until 3pm and then on Monday of next week to help you prepare for your test.
In Purple, Red, and Blue class today, we started solving equations with variables on both sides. We started at our boards with a word problem warm up. We took notes on variables on both sides, and then did a Salsa activity at our boards. You do not have homework tonight, but you do have a test on Thursday of next week.
Reminder: I am available for extra help today after school until 3pm and then on Wednesday of next week to help you prepare for your test.
*PURPLE RED AND BLUE CLASS: Want to improve your score on the first quiz? Stay after school on Tuesday for a re-do, and I will average the two grades together.

Homework
Hi All!
In Green class, we learned how to solve equations involving absolute value. We took notes, and then it was time to go, since we had shortened classes today. For homework, complete Page 32 #3-9 odd, and 11-24 all.
Reminder: Your word problem project is due tomorrow! Make sure you follow the rubric. Please staple your rubric to the back of your word problem.
In Purple, Red, and Blue class, we continued to write and solve equations from word problems. We finished our notes, and then worked on various stations around the room. Everyone has something different for homework, based on the class period, and how much got done! You know what you personally have to do!! :)
Please note: At some point this week, there will be a notebook and math folder check. I will not be telling you when this is. Make sure you are all organized!

Updates and Homework
Hi All!
In Green class, students finished their quizzes from yesterday. We discussed the word problem project that was handed out yesterday. The project is due on Tuesday of next week. Next, we took notes on the various distance word problems in Chapter 1. We were able to get through 3 out of 4. We will finish the last example tomorrow. For homework tonight, you will complete #1, 2, and 4 on the distance word problems worksheet.
In Purple, Red, and Blue class, we discussed how to translate words into mathematical expressions and equations. We used our white boards to practice, and then went on to writing and solving equations from word problems. We only got through the first example, so we will finish them tomorrow! For homework, complete Translate and Solve: 2 step equations #1-4. If you are feeling confident, you can try #5 and 6, although that is not required.

Stressed about your grade already?
I just wanted to write a quick post about your grades. Currently, you guys have a few homework assignments, and one graded classwork assignment. If you have not done one homework assignment, or did not do well on the first graded classwork assignment, then your grade probably isn't as great as you would like it to be. DO NOT STRESS! Because there are such a few grades in the gradebook, your grade appears lower. Once we get a few more grades into the gradebook, if you are still not happy with your grade, come and talk with me!
YAY! TGIF!
Hi All!
In Green class, we continued to discuss the word problems we were working on yesterday. We then started our discussion variables on both sides. We started with a word problem, so that you could see the real life application that these equations actually have. We started our notes on solving equations with variables on both sides, and will finish them up on Monday! You do not have homework this weekend! Enjoy!
Reminder/Update: Quiz is Wednesday!
In Purple, Red, and Blue class, we continued to use distributive property and combining like terms to solve multi-step equations. We finished our notes, and then worked on stations to separate all of the different types of equations we have been working on. We will continue these stations on Monday. There is no homework this weekend! Enjoy!

Homework
Hi All!
In Green class, we are working on translating words into equations. These are NOT easy, but we are working hard to figure them out. We completed our first check-in (graded classwork assignment)on solving multi-step equations. We spent some time going over homework from last night, and then started working on more word problems. For homework, spend 20 minutes on your word problems from class. Please do not spend 20 minutes working on the same problem, or staring at the same problem saying, "I do not get it!" Move on and attempt to do as many as you can in 20 minutes.
In Purple, Red, and Blue class, we are working on solving multi-step equations. We reviewed combining like terms and distributive property today. We completed our first graded classwork assignment on solving one and two step equations. For homework, complete the solving equations "RED" sheet.

In Green class today, we began to solve real life problems involving distributive property and combining like terms. We worked in our groups on some of these challenging problems. For homework, complete Page 16-17 #29-36, 40, 41, 44
In Red, Blue, and Purple class today, we used inverse operations to solve 2-step equations. We created our notes, that will definitely help on the homework. The homework tonight is broken into 4 sections, just like our notes! Use the notes to help you! Homework is entitled, "Solving Equations Practice". Section 4 problem #4, the answer is a whole number, not a fraction! Sorry!
