we spent time in class working on more complicated problems -- adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing integers which requires students to "shift gears" in order to get the correct answer each time.
then we did some work on mixed operations problems - do you have an Aunt Sally? to get these correct you need to "please excuse my dear aunt sally".
I think it's time for a couple of quick quizzes on these integer operations tomorrow (we'll review first).
Parents: by this time, students know if they "get it" or not -- if not, they need to be encouraged to come for some extra help from 3:20 - 4:00. We will not just trust them to make this decision -- some will be told they need to come in.
