Friday March 9, 2012

Students did an excellent job this week solving 1 and 2 step equation with fractions. It was a tough week as I asked a lot of them by solving problems in class for 4 days straight. I assured them that Friday would be a more relaxing activity before we get back to work next week.

Today students will be completing a "color by number" worksheet that I have prepared for them. They will also have a list of questions to answer based on how they colored their worksheet. Below is the assignment they will see in class.


Color by number

Write each color as a fraction, decimal, and percent

Fraction Decimal Percent
Color 1
Color 2
Color 3
Color 4

For example, if there were 80 total shapes to color and 20 of them were colored blue, they would write 20/80 as their fraction, .25 as a decimal, and 25% as percent.

Next week will be 3 days of review from our entire fractions unit before a quiz/ test on thursday and friday. More details next week!
