Comments Off on Ch.12&13: Word Problems

Dear students,

It’s great to see you after the long break, and we were so glad to have 3 guest teachers visiting our class today. We went over Problems #13, 14, and 16 of Ch.11 HW on the whiteboard, and all students, as well as our teachers explained Ch.12 Examples # 1-10, and Ch. 13 Examples #1-6. Please check the class notes here.

Strategies for solving the word problems:

  1. Find out the keywords (underline)
  2. Pay attention to the numbers (and their relationships)
  3. Pay attention to the units
  4. Think about when to use the floor function (rounding down) / ceiling function (rounding up)
  5. Be clear about which formula to use

Homework:

Ch.12: Pg 105-108, Ex 1-23;

Ch.13: Pg 113-116, Ex 1-17;

Please check the answer keys on Pg 301-306, and share your questions on the Google Form here.

No DeltaMath this week.

See you next Sunday, when we are going to discuss the lines.

Warm regards,

Ms. Li
