9/8 Create Math Blogs

1.  Warm-up: The Game

2.  Create Math Blog using Blogger
  • Look at eBook, Lesson 1.1.4 problem 1-34.  Anytime you are asked to write a "Learning Log" you will make a new entry in your blog.
  • Why?  Research shows that people learn deeper if they are given time to reflect on their learning.
  • Give your blog a creative name. Something catchy, something math related.
  • Your first entry will be about proportional relationships.  Think about how you used this concept when you figured out how tall 1 million pennies would be.
3.  Introduction to Math Toolkits and Math Notes
  • At the end of most chapters there are math notes that will help you with the R/P
  • You should read these notes, and in the margins, summarize what you have read
  • Highlighting key words and ideas is a great strategy
4.  ILP time?

No homework tonight!  ILP is due on Friday
