- Do Now: From the Spring Break math packet, what types of problems did you have the most trouble with? Was it basic algebra, completing tables, writing basic algebraic expressions, equations with 2 variables? Please explain.
- Whole Class: Teacher will introduce a lesson on writing and evaluating expressions. Teacher will also introduce the mathematical terms: “coefficient” and “constant”. www.mathsisfun.com/definitions/coefficient.html www.mathsisfun.com/definitions/constant.html
- Collaborative: SW work on worksheet together to gain understanding of the terms and writing and evaluating expressions.
- Independent: SW work on Summit Playlist and Power Focus Areas. Make sure you have complete notes for STLs prior to requesting content assessments. Practice multiplication skill sets.
- Reflection: What are some examples of constants and coefficients that you learned today?
- Have a marvelously rigorous day of math!
