Figure Equations


Day 4

Happy Wednesday! 

The Grade 6's had a great day today. In the morning, we reviewed and took up last night's homework. We began learning a new concept in Math: using numbers to solve figure equations. They were a little tricky at first, but the class worked together to problem solve. We then shared the strategies used to solve the equations. Students who did not get done are asked to complete practice work on p. 25 of the MMS textbook.

In the afternoon, the students worked on their UOI project: building an electric car that meets the specified criteria as discussed earlier. The Grade 6's were eager to continue working on their cars. So far, the cars are looking great!
