2.  Wednesday, August 26, 2015  First holiday, Monday, September 7 th Labor day – No School

3.  Assigned Seats  Bell Ringer – Vocabulary Quiz  Go over materials  Calculator – Calculator hints  Review terms

4.  Explain – to give a clear, understandable explanation or answer  Justify – to lay out the mathematical process step-by-step, showing all work.  Equation – a sentence that says 2 expressions have the same value (=).  Inequality – a sentence that compares the values of 2 expressions, but doesn’t say they are strictly equal., ≤,≥

5.  Numerical Expression – a mathematical phrase that contains numbers and operations. Ex: 8+7  Algebraic Expression – a mathematical phrase that contains numbers, variables, and operations. Ex: 8+7x  Simplify – Replaces the expression with an equivalent expression that is simpler. Ex: 8x+2x=10x

11.  It is really important to understand what signs really mean. To practice understanding signs, you are going to complete #17 – 22 in your packet. You are going to write out in words what each expression means.  #17 – Fourteen minus eight equals six

12.  Now, in questions 23-30 we are going to practice transforming words into a numerical or algebraic expression.  #23 – 13 + 7 = 20 Seven is more than 13. 13 is your starting point.
