Midterm Study Concepts

Here are the four major study concepts we will focus on for our midterm:

1. Integer Operations

2. Coordinate Plane

3. Simplifying Variable Expressions

4. Solving Equations (all operations)

We will be reviewing all week in class and adding to our study guides. Your best resources for study will be your previous quizzes and tests. Don't forget to practice with ixl - you have completed these concepts online already, but ixl will allow you to go back and re-practice.

Quiz Thursday

Hello! This is just a reminder that your quiz on Thursday will include equations with all operations (adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing). Remember that your objective is to isolate the variable, and this is accomplished by performing the opposite operation to both sides. Be sure to look through your notes before your quiz. It will also include integers and absolute value. Tomorrow we will play a review game. Happy studying!

Least Common Multiple

A few reminders for LCM:

A multiple is the product of two numbers. 10 is a multiple of both 2 and 5, for example. Be careful not to confuses multiples with factors.

When finding the LCM using prime factorization, use each match only once, and then bring all the other numbers "down to the party."

If you are finding the LCM of three numbers, your common factors ("matches") do NOT need to be found in all three numbers to be considered a match.

For practice, go to IXL and choose 6th Grade Math > E.8

Congrats!!!

I just wanted to congratulate the three of you who received a 100% on your quizzes today!!! Well done!
