You need to show the steps you take when simplifying expressions. You should also be able to name the definition or property that permitted you to rewrite the original expression. I do not expect to have to say "show your work" anymore in class.
Homework:
- Finish Lesson 2-4, Applying and Review.
- Some students need to complete #6-11 on Lesson Master 2-4. This is due tomorrow.
- Some students owe me a letter signed by both the student and a parent by Monday at the latest.

Mrs. Burke,
BIG news!!! I got my new math journal (without spirals!!!) I am pasting all of my awsome algebraic notes in there right now!!
How did my math puzzle not work? If you could remember which step it was that I messed up on that would be great because i want to correct it not for my grade's sake but for my own interest. I could have sworn it worked though, I had gabs16 choose a random number I did so myself and I even used a negative number. I also used one odd number and one even.
Are you open tomorrow morning because I would like to go over my self-assesment before i turn it in.
Thank you!!!

<3jen12<3, try using 0 for your number puzzle. When I tried 0 for my first puzzle it did not work so I had to tweak it a little. Also Mrs. Burke, I finished my hw. It took me about an hour to complete plus the letter we need to write.
Thanks njm, but Mrs. Burke and I figured out that she just made a misread of one of my steps. My step said (2+x)2 and she thought that I meant the sum of 2 and x SQUARED whereas I actually meant the sum of 2 and x TIMES 2.
Mrs. Burke, I'm am getting my letter signed as we speak ( or I type ) so you should have it on Tuesday. (I'm going to AHC on Monday) I'll see you then!!!
P.S.~ I'll comment on the newest post on how long my math HW took me. It should only take about 20 minutes tops because it is only 6 questions...wish me luck at AHC!!!!
