Learning Target

    Represent and analyze patterns, rules and functions, using physical materials, tables and graphs.

Example

                                                   X      Y

                                                   1       3

                                                    2      5

                                                    3      7

                                                    4      9

   Above, the rule is 2X+1+=Y. So if it continued, if X was 8, to figure out what Y is I would do 8x2+1 and end up with 17. So Y would equal 17.

   Add integers.

Example

   A positive plus a positive is always a positive. For example, +4 + (+2) = +6. A negitive plus a negitive is always a negitive. For example, -5 + (-4) + -9. A positive plus a negitive can be a positive or negitive. A negitive plus a positive can be a positive or a negitive.

      Here is a website about adding integers.

Learning Target

    Identify similar and congruent figures.

Example

       These two figures are the same shape and size. They are congruent.

    These two figures are different size. They are similar.

    Know metric conversions.

Example

    In the metric system, we can add the prefixes milli, meaning thousanth, centi, meaning hundreth, deci, meaning tenth, and kilo, meaning thousand, to the base units, gram for mass, meter for lenth, and liter for capacity, to create a different unit of measurement. For example, by adding centi to meter, we create a centimeter, or a tenth of a meter. By adding milli to liter, we create milliliter, or a thousanth of a liter.

Learning Target

 Make and describle tessellation.

Example

 This is an example of a regular tessellation. A regular tessellation is a tessellation made of congruent polygons.

 This is an example of a semi-regular tessellation. A semi-regular tessellation is a tessellation made of more than 1 type of regular polygons and has the same arrangment at every vertex.

Here is a link to a website where you can do a tessellation activity.
