Sections 1.1 to 1.7
  • Patterns
  • Variables and Expressions
  • Powers and Exponents
  • Order of Operations
  • Mental Math
  • Perimeter and Area
Key Items - All
Vocabulary
See first page of section under Key Vocabulary
  • Expression (NOV)
  • Variable (letter for number)
  • Equation (2 expressions with equal sign
  • Power (number multiplied by itself)
  • Base (repeating factor in power)
  • Exponent (number of times base is multiplied)
  • Perimeter (distance around rectangle)
  • Area (inside of rectangle)
  • Variable expression (expression with variable)
  • Solution (answer to problem)
  • Solve (get the answer)
  • Evaluate (give a value to something - number)
Key Items 1.1
  • Finding a Pattern
  • Identify (say what it is)
  • Know next 3 numbers in sequence
Key Items 1.2 Variables and Expressions
  • What is Variable
  • What is an Expression
  • What is the difference between Expressions and Equations
  • How to evaluate
  • Multi-Step problems
  • Two Variable problems
Variables continued
  • Know what number before variable means
  • 3Y = 3 x Y = 3(Y)
Key Items 1.3 Powers and Exponents
  • 3 parts of Power
    • Base
    • Power
    • Exponent
  • How to Write a Power
  • Square and Cube
    • 2nd power and 3rd power

Key Items Perimeter and Area
  • Perimeter
    • Measuring Distance Around
    • = (2 * Length) + (2 * width)
    • If square (has side not length and width) = 4 x s
  • Area
    • Measures inside
    • = length * width
    • Square (4 equal sides) = s2
    • Units (measure i.e inch, foot, meter) is squared (ft2,in2)

Well, hello everyone! I am lonely. No one is here. :( I guess I will just talk to myself.

Hannah: Hello Hannah. I love what you've done with your hair.

Me: Why thank you! Is that a new top? I love it!

Hannah: Matter a fact it is! Thanks for noticing.

Me: No problem.

Hannah: I wish more people were here.

Me: I agree.

Hannah: Atleast we are here.

*cricket cricket*

Hannah: Hello? Are you there?

Me: Oh, sorry. I was eating a cookie.

Hannah: It's ok, we all eat cookies and lose track of the time sometimes. It's all good.

Me: Oh, I have to go. See ya.

Hannah: Bye! See you at school!
