LARGE GROUP
We discussed the Problem of the Week, Area & Volume. We shared our ideas for figuring out perimeter, the sum of the edges of cubes, area, and volume for these problems. We also discussed the Unit Project--click here for details.

Students also worked on Problem 4.2, Distributing operations. We were calculating the area of subdivided rectangles, and writing math sentences to indicate that the are of the entire rectangle was equal to the sums of the areas of the smaller sections. Class notes are available here for class 7A and class 7B.
