Instead we started with our first Which One Doesn't Belong. I decided to use the one below only because my students have seen cards a lot this week. They see them every day to determine where they sit and they saw them when we played integer solitaire. I was curious to see if any of them would make a connection back to the game about black being positive and red being negative. It turns out nobody did.
In our discussion yesterday about multiplying and dividing integers, order of operations came up. They all seemed to know the rules so I went over them fairly quickly but we did spend a bit of time talking about exponents. I gave them a few questions to try and then we took them up.
We also went over the Pythagorean Theorem. They knew how to find the length of the hypotenuse from yesterday's work so we worked through an example of finding one of the legs. I gave them some order of operations and Pythagorean Theorem questions for homework.
