Today in class we reviewed properties from section 1-6.

I introduced 1-7: Variables and Algebraic Expressions. I did not provide a notes handout on this skill because it is very easy. Students simply replace a variable with a given value and solve the expression.

For example:     a + 6 if a = 2; 2 + 6 = 8

Remember: 4y means 4 times y so if y = 5, the expression is 4 times 5 = 20; NOT 45

Homework: 1-7 Practice A & B

Reminders: Division Test #3 is Friday, 11/2. Also, the AR test for the October reading assignment will be taken Friday in math class.

Have a Safe and HAppy HALLOWEEN !!
