Monday TEK: Math 7.2(A) Extend previous knowledge of sets and subsets using a visual representation between sets of rational numbers. - Students create graphic organizer depicting the sets of natural numbers, whole number, integers, rational numbers, and irrational numbers. - Students cut out a sheet of given numbers and past these numbers in the proper area of the graphic organizer. Tuesday TEK: Math 7.1(A) Apply mathematics to problems arising in everyday life, society, and the workplace. - Review strategies for approaching math problems. Focus on key words which indicate what type of problem. - Use volunteers to work through sample problems on the board as a whole class. - Independent worksheet for remainder of class. Start struggling students with teacher-led small group. Students may ask table groups for help, if needed. Wednesday TEK: Math 7.1(B) Use a problem-solving model that incorporates analyzing given information, formulating a plan or strategy, determining a solution, justifying the solution, and evaluating the problem-solving process and the reasonableness of the solution. - Review strategies for approaching math problems. Focus on key words which indicate what type of problem. - Use volunteers to work through sample problems on the board as a whole class. - Independent worksheet for remainder of class. Start struggling students with teacher-led small group. Students may ask table groups for help, if needed. Thursday TEK: Math 7.1(A); Math 7.1(B) - Review showing work. - Work missed problems and questions as a whole class. - Use iPads to play Kahoot! - Unit summary. Unit 2: Addition and Subtraction of Rational Numbers Friday TEK: Math 7.3(A) Add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers fluently. - Have a competition for completing simple mathematical problems. Three students are given a problem and work it on the board. - Students will rotate through several stations: - Flash cards. - Problems taped on the table. - IXL. - Manipulatives. - Worksheet.
