Variables and Algebra Test - THURSDAY (am)

We are working hard to finish up all of our language and math units before March break. This will allow students to fully relax over the break and to start fresh with new units when they return. We began our mini-unit on variables and algebra last week and plan to finish it up this coming Thursday (March 7). The topics covered on this test include:- recognizing if a variable is representing an unknown quantity OR a changing quantity- determining the value of an unknown in an algebraic equation- using strategies (completing the opposite operation) to solve one-step equations- substituting values into algebraic equations- using formulas to solve problems- writing simple algebraic equations from words and pictures

Here is a list of online practice sites that students are encouraged to explore over the next few days:
1) One-Step Equation Game 
2) One-Step Equation Pong
3) A Collection of Algebra Games
4) Solving Equations
5) Equation Match
6) Late Delivery
7) Algebraic Expressions Millionaire
8) Writing Algebraic Equations
