The four pictures for today will review the basic concepts that will be on the very first test for the year (we've had quizzes, but not tests). Some of the problems will be very straight forward (like what is the Prime Factorization for...), but some will require the students to decide which math concept to apply.
You can also look at my previous posts for additional explanations. 9-3 is how to find the prime factors of a number.
9-4 is how to use Prime Factorization to find GCF and LCM.
9-10 shows two ways to write expression (it demonstrates the Distributive Property).
Other resources:
They can access their Reflex math account via the internet at home (reflexmath.com).
http://www.mathplayground.com/factortrees.html - This website gives excellent practice on finding the Prime Factorization of numbers AND using the Prime Factorization to find the GCF or LCM with a Venn diagram.
If the pictures from today's post look like someone's kitchen counter, well that is MY kitchen counter--it doubled as a photography studio last night!
