Happy New Year!
6th Grade Math – Mrs. VonVeldt
7th Grade Math – Mrs. VonFeldt & Mrs. Evans
This week, in 7th grade math, we are beginning to solve equations using an organized process in which we UNDO whatever has been done to the variable to get it all by itself. We will begin with one step equations and then move to two step equations. The way we UNDO something that has been done to a variable is to do the inverse operation to the one in the equation. If we do the same thing to both sides of the equation, the equation is still a true statement. This means that we MUST always do the same thing to both sides of the equation when we are solving for the variable. Here are simple examples of how to solve basic one-step equations:

This week in 8th grade math we are learning about angle relationships. We will extend on our lessons from 7th grade to consider transversals as well as intersecting lines. Here are the basic relationships between angles that we learned in 7th grade that we will need to build on this year:
