Plan, think, build, learn!
Student seemed very competent with this material and so we flew through it.
Objective:
Unit objectives: Student will be able to solve: one step equations; two step equations; inequalities (with one and two steps).
Lesson:
Summative assessment on unit 7. If time permits, watch "Numb3rs" episode to apply equations functions to real life events!
Assignment:
None
Objective:
Introduce new topic: Equations with inequalities
Lesson:
(1) Provide model solutions to three questions. (2) Students solve p. 357 #13-27 odd in class. (Formative quiz on text 7-1. (2) Students work problems in class from p. 337 # 11-29 odd. While students work I monitor progress and teach individuals. (3) Formative quiz at end of period.
Assignment:
(1) Answer following questions showing all work: p. 358 # 31-44 all. Summative test next Monday on this unit.
Objective:
Introduce new topic: Equations with variables on both sides (7-1)
Lesson:
(1) Formative quiz on text 7-1. (2) Students work problems in class from p. 337 # 11-29 odd. While students work I monitor progress and teach individuals.
Assignment:
(1) Answer following questions showing all work: p. 337-8 # 24,26, 28, 30-41. [This is a selection of the most difficult problems in this section since students mostly understand the concept.]
Objective: Assessment
Lesson: (1) Summative assessment on dimensional analysis, proportions, and fraction/ decimal/ percent conversions.
Assignment: [Begin new topic on Monday; 7.1 in text.]
Objective: Check proportions for understanding and if good, move onto next topic.
Lesson: (1) Review "proportion" assignment and solving for one variable in proportions (using cross multiply technique.
Assignment: Textbook p. 284 #20-27 and 32-48; and p. 291 #9-25 Summative test on i) dimensional analysis, ii) proportions and iii) interconverting percent, decimal and fractions.
Objective: (1) Formative assessment on dimensional analysis
Lesson: (1) Quiz on dimensional analysis (2) Assign proportion questions [kids seem to understand this well so we will just do one assignment for review then move on.]
Assignment: Textbook p. 273 #9-29 (all) [Next day grade for showing work and for problems solving.]
