Today we learned to estimate using fractions.

Make a fraction out of this


To find the whole number you would look for how many squares are the same on each side. To get the denominator you would have to count the next set of squares. You would count all the squares until you get to a perfect square. To get the numerator you would have to label all the squares.


whole number
numerator
denominator

(e.g)

1/1=1 1 1/3 1 2/3 1 3/3 2 1/5 2 2/5 2 3/5 2 4/5 5/5=3

amalia couldn't log in or something so im the scribe for today

Today in class we got back our cumulative test all we had to do with it was either correct it with someone or if you got 10/10 .You just created your own question that is similar from the 1st or 2nd question that was on the test for ten minutes.

After we were done that we had to cut out our perfect square things that we did on that graph paper and glue it to a white piece of paper that got handed out to us. It looks like this unless mines wrong all i didnt do was put the square root and i think you need it ?.

pictures might be blurry because i used a camera phone .

Then next we did a question on the overhead . i think it was that. Well we used our square root chart that we made in class.. We had to find the square root without using a calculator. first you check what factors are inbetween 779 and that would be 27x27=729 and 28x28=784. and then you do something else, the answer would be 27. something because you dont actually know what the decimal is.

Next we saw what our homework was and its due tomorrow when we have math heres the questions. You have to find the square root for each one and solve the word problem thing.

The next scribe would be Maryrose.

Today in class we found out how to get a square root on our calculator.To do that you have to press the number that you want to find out the square root of and then press the button that looks like a check then equall it.

After that we had to make a PERFECT square from using blocks from 1-16.

The next scribe is Amalia.

first thing today is the homework (6,8,9,10 -perfect square?).

• - 6 is not a perfect square
• - 8 is not a perfect square
• - 9 is a perfect square with equal sides (3x3)
• - 10 is not a perfect square

a perfect square is any square that has the same length on all sides.


************************************************************

1. with 6 tiles what is the biggest square you can make?

remember a square must have all sides the same length.



= 2x2

= 4

2. now make the smallest square.

= 1x1

= 1

you can also make perfect squares with any number of tiles.

1. -make a the biggest square you can
2. -cut the other extra squares in thin pieces
3. -add them to two sides like an L in the square

ex.

to figure out the exact size of the side length of the square you must square(umm check mark sign in a calculator) the area.






homework:D

draw PERFECT SQUARES using 6,8,9,10,12,14&17 tiles.
do it in your notebook or in the graph paper.






NEXT SCRIBE IS FRANCIS CHOO

Today in class we learned about perfect rectengles. We created some perfect rectangles. Heres some examples of perfect rectangles.


Picture from google images.

We also learned about factors, Exponents, and Area.
Hers a quick definition of those three things.

Factors- a number that gives you another number when multiplied together. Example the factors for 18 are 1x18 2x9 3x6.

Exponents- Abbr. expMathematics A number or symbol, as 3 in (x+y)3, placed to the right of and above another number, symbol, or expression, denoting the power to which that number, symbol, or expression is to be raised. Also called power.

Area- A roughly bounded part of the space on a surface

Then we did a a graph that includes all those three things heres mine as an example the area unit might be wrong so double check.



Just in case you cant understand my example hers another from google images.


That the end of my scribe post the next scribe is Rainer lol.

Square Roots Information

Square Roots

This will be a quick unit on Square Roots and Square Numbers. What Are they does this video help?

During this unit the Scribes will be at work. Please choose a person from the Scribe List to be the next scribe. The Scribe list can be found in the sidebar under the category other Sargent Park Math Blogs. Tell that person at school as well as on your scribe post. Please label your post Scribepost.

Happy Scribing


Homework Assignment 1
