For homework you guys have ex. 1 - 10 p. 126

Match each ordered pair with the appropriate quadrant:

5. A
6. B
7. C
8. D
9. E
10. F


Remember that on Friday we have our Monthly test and it will be open notebook. Make sure you have your notebook complete and with notes in order for you to have a good resource for Friday.

6th grade homework for Thursday Nov. 1st, 2012

Your homework for tomorrow you already started it in class. So basically all you need to do is complete your work in your notebook.

This is the last week we will be working converting mixed numbers to improper fractions and viceversa. Make sure you continue practicing at home. Remember that Math is learned through practice, and that every topic is related to the next. So we must never forget or leave behing what we have learned.

Ex. 21 - 26 p. 113

21. Tracey worked a total of 345 min. on a project. Use mixed numbers to write the time in hours.
Remember there are 60 minutes in an hour.

Write each improper fraction as a whole or mixed number. Simplify when possible.
22. 42/7
23. 27/12
24. 20/3
25. 125/5
26. 84/12

Remember to study for the quiz we have on Friday. Although it is open notebook, check to see if you have your notebook complete and with the correct process.

Have a great afternoon!

6th homework for Thursday October 4th, 2012

6th Graders:

Today we started working with the topic Prime Factorization. So far we have only covered prime and composite numbers, and factors. Remember that prime numbers are whole numbers with exactly two factors, one and itself; composite numbers are whole numbers that have more than two factors.

For the first question, research the definition of multiple so you can explain the difference.

Homework:
Ex. 1 - 7 p. 77

1) How is a factor different from a multiple?

2) Which numbers are factors of all even numbers?

3) What is the only even prime number?

Is the number prime or composite? Explain
4) 29                            5)28
6) 27                            7)26

Bonus point:
Evaluate g2(f+h) for f = -2, g = -3, and h = -4
