Math, Fri. May 1 - Introducing Variables
Hi Friends,
Today, I am introducing a new math concept that you will see SO MUCH of in higher math, 6th grade and beyond. It's called variables!
Vocab: (for your reference)
Variables: letters or symbols that stand in for unknown numbers.
Substitution: The process of replacing a variable with a number
Expression: A number model with no answer or equal sign
Equation: A number model with an answer.
Here is what to do:
1. Watch video and take notes (typed or handwritten) - TURN IN
2. Select HALF the problems from the worksheet below. Solve them. - TURN IN
(you can type it or print it and take a picture)
Comment time!
--Think of our menu - Burgers = $5, Fries = $4, Sodas = $3
--Write a number model (or expression) for how much it would cost for everyone in your family to order one of each of these.
--Solve that number model and tell me the total price!

Hi Friends! Today, we are dividing decimal numbers by whole numbers! Here's the main idea--it's regular long division, except you have to pay attention to where to place the decimal point. You can use estimation or the traditional method in the video!
Think about it:
What is: 42 / 7 = 6
Now try : 4.2 / 7 = ?? (use estimation to place the decimal) (No turn in required)

Strategy #2 - Powers of 10 - Practice is page 202 in Math Journal (photo not required, but the page is provided here as a reference)
Strategy #3 - Traditional - counting decimal places
2a. I provided an extra video from YouTube because sometimes having someone else's voice can make all the difference.
2b. I have also provided photos of the notes on each strategy from the board. You can copy it or print it and as it as a VIP.

--We are adapting this slightly because we are not class. Instead of class pencils, pick 12 office/school materials at your house (such as rulers, pencils, pens, erasers, markers, white out, paper, etc--you may repeats such as two different pencils) and measure the length of each to the nearest 1/4 in.
--Follow the directions on the page--think of a good scale for the line plot and make an X on the line to represent each item's length.
4. Find the Mean, Median, Mode and Range of your data set
--write this directly onto the page
--Upload a picture of p. 205 and your findings of Mean, Median, Mode & Range
5. Complete Home Links 6-4. Upload a picture.

Today's Lesson 6-2 - Playing Exponent Ball to Multiply and Divide by Powers of 10
1. Warm-up: The key is posted to Math Boxes 6-1. Check Friday's Math Boxes (6-1) and write about 2 problems on a Google Doc. Pick two you got wrong and explain why you missed it and why the correct answer makes sense. If you didn't miss any, just write about why two of the answers make sense. --Turn this in.
2. Play Exponent Ball
--I made a video of the directions and a printed copy is attached. You can play on the computer on Connected.mcgraw-hill.com or on paper. You'll need a deck of cards and 2 dice.
3. Write a paragraph explaining how the game helps you practice the skill of multiplying and dividing by powers of 10.
*Paragraph can be written by hand on lined paper added to your GoogleDoc for the warm-up. Either way, please title your paper like this:
"Sarah McElven, Math Exponent Ball, 3/23/2020"
Word Wall: (Some words to help you brainstorm) "multiply, divide, downs, yards, place values, base, exponent, 10"
4. Complete Home Links 6-2 and upload a picture of it (or type the answers onto the doc with your paragraphs)
5. Add the questions you have to your Doc or comment with it! Good luck!

Math for Friday, March 20, 2020 - Everyday Math 6-1
Welcome to your first day of online math! Let's stay flexible and see how it goes!
Objective: Today we are reviewing exponents and powers of 10, and learning how to multiply and divide by powers of 10. By the end of today, you will know how to multiply and divide by powers of ten!
Please read all directions before beginning!
1. Warm-up: Math Boxes 6-1
*Log into EverydayMath and do the math boxes for 6-1
* If you are having log-in trouble, please leave a comment here and do p. 198 in your Math Journal and upload a photo of it with the other work for today. (approximately 10 minutes)
2. Reviewing Exponents
*Watch the video below called "Introduction to Exponents"
Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDie9CnFgUg
3. Experiment with Powers of 10.
* Math Journal p. 196, 197 (Approximately 20-30 minutes)
4. Review the process of multiplying and dividing by powers of ten with the second video.
5. Math Journaling: Write in your YELLOW Math Notebook:
a. Title the Page: Powers of 10, Friday, March 20, 2020
b. Based on the videos and pages, please explain what these are in your own words and write an example:
1. Exponent
2. Base
3. Powers of 10
4. Exponential Notation
c. Please review the two charts attached: Exponential Notation Place Value Chart & Decimal Place value chart.
* Describe 2 ways they are similar and 2 ways they are different.
* Here are some words that may help, but feel free to use other words as well:
tens place,
ones place,
tenth,
hundredth,
expanded form,
equivalent
6. Upload & Turn in!
Please upload photos of the written pages and notebook as a slides presentation or as a doc. On Monday, I will post the answer keys for students who turned in the work, and we'll go through those. There is no homelinks required for today's lesson.
Good job! Thanks for your work today! I am excited to see what you write and to give you comments on it!
