TUESDAY 10/30: WEDNESDAY 10/31: THURSDAY 11/1: FRIDAY 11/2: NOVEMBER 7.EE.1 Apply properties of operations as strategies to add, subtract, factor, and expand linear expressions with rational coefficients. 7.EE.2 Understand that rewriting an expression in different forms in a problem context can shed light on the problem and how the quantities in it are related. 7.EE.B Solve real-life and mathematical problems using numerical and algebraic expressions and equations. 7.EE.3 Solve multi-step real-life and mathematical problems posed with positive and negative rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions, and decimals), using tools strategically. Apply properties of operations to calculate with numbers in any form; convert between forms as appropriate; and assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies. 7.EE.4 Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning about the quantities. 7.EE.4.a Solve word problems leading to equations of the form px + q = r and p(x + q) = r, where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers. Solve equations of these forms fluently. Compare an algebraic solution to an arithmetic solution, identifying the sequence of the operations used in each approach. 7.EE.4.bSolve word problems leading to inequalities of the form px + q > r or px + q < r, where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers. Graph the solution set of the inequality and interpret it in the context of the problem. MONDAY 11/5: NY Series Red Book.

Math Project 10/1
Please read directions carefully:
Visit the websites listed to find examples of real life uses of integers, particularly the addition and subtraction of negative numbers.
- Then-and-Now Timeline
- Students will develop a time line of their lives.
- Materials: Colored pencils and markers, each student will create a timeline of the most important dates of their past and projected life. Starting at zero, representing today, the students will move in years to the left or right of the zero, displaying history and future goals. For example, if a student was born 15 years ago, a negative 15 would represent her birth.
Visit the websites listed to find examples of real life uses of integers, particularly the addition and subtraction of negative numbers.
- Identify three instances where integers are used in your everyday life.
- Provide a solid explanation that demonstrates your understanding of how the integers are involved with the examples that you identify. You will not receive credit for explanations or examples that are copied directly from a website. The explanations must include "how BOTH POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE numbers" are used.
- Write these explanations in the Integers and Everyday Life section of the Integer Webquest packet.
- Negative numbers in real life: http://mathforum.org/library/drmath/view/59049.html
- Integers in our daily lives: http://mathforum.org/library/drmath/view/60694.html
- Subtracting Negative Numbers: http://mathforum.org/library/drmath/view/57870.html

- Integer in our everyday lives: http://mathforum.org/library/drmath/view/57216.html
Write THREE, ORIGINAL real-life word problems.
- You must write one addition, one subtraction and one multiplication or division word problem. Each problem that YOU create MUST use NEGATIVE and POSITIVE integers. No credit will be given for examples that are copied from a website. The word problems need to be realistic (i.e. you cannot have -3 marbles).
- Integer War
- Issue each pair of students one deck of regular playing cards. Fashioned after the traditional card game War, each student is dealt 26 cards. Each student simultaneously turns over one card and the person who can correctly multiply the two integers together takes both cards. Designate the red cards as positive integers and the black as negative. Jacks, Queens and Kings will substitute for a 10 and Aces are one.
