Assigned on Monday, Feb. 28th....
6.2 Solving by balancing Pages 280-281 # 3, 4, 6 - 17


On Wednesday/Thursday, Feb. 16/17, the assignment was:
Outcome D-1 Equations
6.1  Inverse operations   Pages 271 - 272  # 1, 5-21, 24




Outcome D-2  Inequalities

6.4
6.5

Study guide for unit test is on page 307 (check off the skills you are confident in, get more practice in the ones you are not confident in - ask Mrs. S. for outcome D-1 or D-2 practice sheets before the unit test!)

Complete the unit review on pages 308-309 # 1-16 and check it in the back
Complete the practice test on page 310 and check it in the back





If we have a lab period, please do the following:


Please go to THE LEARNING EQUATION 9.  Open your file by using your computer username and password.  If you need to create a new one, no problem. 
On the main menu, go to the FOURTH Choice down on the list VARIABLES and EQUATIONS.


Click on the first choice under its list:  Exploring Algebra Tiles. 


Complete the Intro (the movie scene picture), the tutorial (magnifying glass), the example (puzzle piece), practice & problems (single pencil), extra practice (double pencil) and the self-check (checkmark).






Do the same for LINEAR EQUATIONS 1, the second choice under the list of VARIABLES and EQUATIONS. 


You will be using the ALGEBRA TILES EXPLORER to solve equations in different ways than you have in grades 6, 7 and 8.


We will also be logging into Discovery Education and watch videos about equations.

Please check out the following videos on EDUTUBE for Mr. Bannatyne, Mr. Kellough and myself showing some examples if you need help during your homework.  Search "equation" in the TITLE search bar.
