This week in 7th grade math we are finishing up our second unit of the year on solving algebra equations. We have been slowly building the algebra problems during the course of the unit. We started with simple one step equations and inequalities, then moved onto two step equations, then to multi-step equations that require combining like terms and distributing. Today we added the last piece which was solving equations that had variables on both sides of the equation. The class is now able to solve pretty complex algebra equations and inequalities.
Upcoming assignments:
Quiz tomorrow October 28th on sections 7.1, 7.2, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6
