Integer Story part 2....sorry its way BELATED

Friday, December 5, 2008
Hey its me Britt again..Alittle bit of review from first chapter I was not able to solve integer questions but now i am...and I helped others solve and become better. I got an Award!!!!

So my name is Britt. I did addition first now I will do Subtraction. So I was on my way up to camp with my family and 2 of my friends to Petersfield.My friends names are Selena,and Gabriella. So on the way we were looking out the window and we saw lots of birds in the sky...and I was like hey lets subtract away the birds that leave. Lets start with how many are there and how many stay and go. 12 in total and oh look 7 are leaving . So Gabriella make that into an equation ummmmm...okay Ill try she said im not the best! She said (12)-(-7)=5 Britt says yayyy....you did it. Now lets take a break and enjoy the ride to petersfield. Gabriella says I have my ipod and Britt says me to ...lets listen to them..ok. Britts mother Selena says girls I know what you can do..they say "what" ....you both can do more subtracting integers.....but mom.......no buts.You need the practice oh ok britt says. Now her mom says I didnt bring my ipod,your dad did... so in total there is 3.So now britt make an equation....ok (3)-(1)=2. Goodjob
girls her mom said.Thats enough now.You will start learning 2 more harder ones when we arrive to the camp....you both will go swimming and start with people who are there and subtract how many leave that have been there for awhile already.....Ill turn the radio on we are almost here. 10 minutes after we are HERE!! britts mom says.....now help put away the the things and go get your swimming things .....okay said the girls. As they were heading out towards the pool there was 10 in total.....none left yet so keep it in mind gabriella because its your turn..ok. So they both jump in and start having fun....oh LOOK! 7 are leaving time to do my equation with help from you,your mom.......ummmm..(10)-(7)=3. OH yeah I did it and you guys are making me much smarter thanks....As they gett ready to head back its Britts turn now and then they get the rest of the weekend to do what they want..well you will count how many boats there are right now (mother had said) well 16 in total and there is 10 getting pulled out so....ooooh I can do it wait ,..brainstorming the equation in her head the answer is 6 ....(16)-(10)=6.. WOW nice jod britt, and gabriella you to are getting better.They get back at the trailer and get dressed and have a blast...go hangout with there other friends that are there.They check in with dad then play man hunt at night time.....we are having soooo much fun as they start to hide from there both bestest friends katie,and Sabrina...they both come to look for them and they find them because Britt was gigling,and gabriella was tickling her...when they had finished playing went to the trailer and they had to stay now till tommorrow morning they had a bonfire.....with marshmellows to end the night !!!!!!!!!!!the end

Chapter 1 Integer Poems

Haiku: Adding Integers

Adding Integers
I can add two integers
I know how to add

Cinquain :Subtracting Integers

Subtracting
loss, less than
subtracting means to reduce
Minus

Haiku: Multiplying

Multiplying Rocks
five multiplied by five
next comes dividing

Cinquain: Partitive Division

Divide in parts
equal parts, are in
Parts split up equally

Free verse: Quotitave Division

Quotitave division is like partitive
but in the same sense different
you need to understand it
to do your assingment.

Free verse: Multiplying rule/ Ron's rule




According to Ron when you multiply an odd number of negitive integers your product will be negitive, And when you multiply an even number of negitive integers you will get a product that is positive.


Chapter 2: Combining Like Terms

Stewie: How do you combine like terms?
Brian: Well Stewie first you see if there are any variables that are the sme letter you circle them.
Stewie: So if the question is n+3-5n+12 i circle the n and the 5n?
Brian: Yes
Stewie: Then what?
Brian: Well you rewirte the question so the like terms are grouped together.
Stewie writes: n-5n+3+12
Stewie: What's next?
Brian:Then you solve it
Stewie: Okay give me a minute.
Stewie writes: n-5n=5n+3=8n+12=2n. Is 20n the anwser?
Brian: Yes it is!
Stewie: Woo hoo I'm smarter then you!
Brian: I'm not so sure about that.
Brian: If your so smart then anwser this question...2 + 4(3n+8).
Stewie:ummm... I don't think i can anwser that one. Besides i'm only a baby
Brian: Okay I'll help you.

Stewie: Awsome

Brian: Well first you have to group the like terms which are 2+4+8 and add on the number with the variable. So the question will look like this 2+4+8x3n and that give you the anwser of 42n

Stewie: Thanks Brian

Brian: no problem buddy

Stewie: Well see you later

Brian: Bye Bye

Stewie: Peace out

Hi my name is Aimie. Whats yours......?
My name1 is Scarlet.... I love it out here...you want to learn about combining like terms....we need the practice because we have a quiz coming up in math and I would like to have a friend. Im only .....ummmm 9....and how old are you..? We have to go to school together? What do you say. There is 2 questions on the quiz we could quiz eachother..........
S1ure I will be your friend......im only 9years old too.I will go to school with you no problem.Yeah....I guess I will study with you for the quiz.You give me one then I will. Ok what is the first question...?
Its N+3-35N+12. So try to figure this out.IT...
Ok.....2well I got -6n+15....YEAH ....I did it wait a minute did I......Yeah it cant be wrong because I didnt forget to multiply nothing.So how did I do..?
Ummmm..well. Im sorry to say but you got this wron1g....But dont start to argue with me I will help you......we will answer it the right way so you get it correct.OK......
WHAT- your saying all my hard work is wrong!!!!! Well I tried my best....so help me and Ill give you your question...and im sorry but I cant even get it right.
Okay well you have to arrange it take your n's t hen your positives and answer it. So your question is n+3-5n+12.And you almost got it. Its n-5n+3+12.Then -4n+15.There your done.Do you get it now..?
Wait....oh I remember what I did wrong now...thanks I get it I /think I will do well on the test now.....!!!!!YAY Thanks im so happy that ill give you a kiss...
Okay. Now it is your turn......the qustion is 2+4(3n+8)....ok that one is easy...make sure you watch me because I am alittle better at it then you...12n+10...nope thats wrong right ...so you multipy 4with 3 you get 12+ 4 multiply 8 you get 32....now ad the rest and your done .........12+32=44+2=46...wow we did it its finally over me ,you have solved them horray....Tehe.We will both do good on our Quiz tommorrow.....
ok that one is easy...make sure you watch me because I am alittle better at it then you...12n+10...nope thats wrong rig3ht ...so you multipy 4with 3 you get 12+ 4 multiply 8 you get 32....now ad the rest and your done .........12+32=44+2=46...wow we did it its finally over me ,you have solved them horray....Tehe.We will both do good on our Quiz tommorrow.....The end....

KALLY: Hey what’s Julie?

JULIE: OH nothing much, Just doing my math homework.

KALLY: Do you need some help?

JULIE: Yahh, This ALGEBRA is so hard.

KALLY: Well Let's see your paper.

JULIE: Umm... here you go... The Question is n+3-5n+12


KALLY: ohhh... i see you... you actually got the answer wrong.


JULIE: But i thought it was -6n+15.


KALLY: no... Well you are surpose to simplify it... there is no equal sign there



JULIE: Well i thought we were surpose to add them or something


KALLY: Here is how you do it.. First you have to you have to group the variables and numbers. You also have to put them in order so it will be easier.
After doing that the expression should be -5n + n + 3 + 12. ok


JULIE: Okay i think i get it


KALLY: add the numbers, and finish simplifying the question.

JULIE: Ok I'll do that

KALLY: Add the two leftover numbers, 3 and 12, we get 15. To finish answering this question, you have to add both the answer from the variables and the numbers. Then the answer comes out to -4n + 15.

JULIE : ok then on to the next question
KALLY: Well tell me what the question is?
JULIE: oh um... The next question is 2+4(3n+8).. um i think i know the answer to this question
KALLY: Well what is it
JULIE: ... uhhhhm.. the answer is 12n + 10
KALLY: you got the answer wrong agains silly..
JULIE: Well what is the answer then..
KALLY: Well you have to simplify it..plus you have to do the brackets first.
KALLY: Well first you have to multiply the 4 that is outside the brackets with the 8 inside it you will get 32 then you multily the 4 by the 3n the answer is 12. When you've done that you have to add the 2 to the 32 and as your final answer you get 12n+34.
JULIE: Well that was easy...Thank You for helping me with my math homework Kally.
KALLY: You are very welcome...

Thanks for all the great comments

Thursday, December 4, 2008
Hi everyone! Thanks so much for all the great comments on my blog. I had a great time this semester looking at your blogs and seeing what you are doing. Your class looks like a lot of fun doing scribes daily. I wish I would have had some of those opportunities in my classes. I hope to see more of the great things you are doing and here more about you!
Thanks again,
Jocelyn

The Great Big Book of Algebra

Chapter One:

Cinquain:Adding
Adding
Easy, hard
Thinking, solving, trying
Really easy to learn
Addition
Haiku:Subtracting
There's no subtracting
Always add it's opposite
Now you have to add

Free Verse:Ron's Rule

Ron's rule is not a pain in the butt,
Just listen to what I have to say, and you'll have a shortcut!
Even number of negative integers equals positive.
Odd number of negative integers equals negative.
See! It isn't all that bad,
I hope you didn't get all that mad.
Use Ron's rule and you'll never fail,
Use this rule, and don't bail!

Tanka:Quotative

Simply use pictures
Use algebra tiles for this
Draw amount needed
Circle number of groups told
How many circled groups seen?

Free Verse:Partitive

Want to learn how to divide using partitive?
Well, I'm here to tell you, so don't worry, you'll live.
For partitive, you need to make groups.
This isn't one of those "oops".
Draw the amount of algebra tiles needed.
This is what I did, and I succeeded.
Share them like a deck of cards.
And no, I don't mean billiards.
How many algebra tiles in each group?
Now that you have your answer, you can go shoot some hoops.

Chapter Two: Combining Like Terms and the
Distributive Property

Here's my script:
Matthew: Hi, Auntie Donna!
Auntie Donna: Hi Matthew!
Matthew: I have a math test tomorrow and I was wondering if you could test me with a couple of algebra questions.
Auntie Donna: Oh, sure. Hmm... Let me think of one... How about n+3-5n+12.
Matthew: Hmm... I think the answer is -6n+15
Auntie Donna: Your answer is incorrect, Matthew. Let's simply go back and take a look at how to do this question, and what you did wrong while solving it.
Matthew: Oh, shucks! Well, alright...
Auntie Donna: Well, first you must re-group the numbers to make it easier to solve. Therefore it should be, n-5n+3+12.Then combine like terms and solve it. Which means combine all the terms that are the same. Now, it should be, -4n+15. Now you have simplified it.
Matthew: Well, what did I do, to get my incorrect answer?
Auntie Donna: Hmm... Well, if we go back and look at it, you added -n and -5n instead of subtracting -5n from n.
Matthew: Oh, I see I see... Can you give me one more question?
Auntie Donna: Sure. How about, 2+4(3n+8).
Matthew: Okay, I'll try it. Uh... I came up with 12n+10.
Auntie Donna: Once again, you're incorrect. Let's go back and do step by step again.
Matthew: Aww... okay.
Auntie Donna: Okay, so with this question, there is distributive property going on. You can underline it so that you know where it happens. So, put the 2 first because you know that it's going to stay because it's not part of the distributive property. Now, take the number beside the bracket and multiply the two terms inside the brackets. It should now be, 2+12n+32. Now re-group it. It should be, 12n+2+32. Combine the like terms like last time. It should be, 12n+34. And that should be your simplified expression.
Matthew: Oh, right. Well, explain to me what I did wrong.
Auntie Donna: Oh yeah. Well, when you first looked at the question, instead of multiplying both terms in the bracket, you just multiplied the first one, and added the last two integers. Which is why you got the answer 12n+10.
Matthew: Ooooohhh. I get it now. It really is easy now that you've explained it all. Thanks Auntie Donna! I hope I do well on my math test.
Auntie Donna: Oh, I'm sure you will, but just remember to go step by step. It's okay to use lots of paper because we recycle!

Here is my math video on xtranormal.com :)

Chapter 3: One Step Equation Solving
Additive: First, I isolated the variable. I isolated the variable by adding its opposite, which would be -2. Since I added -2 to the left side, I must balance it out, so I have to add it to the right side. After that, I crossed out +2 and -2, because they make zero pairs, and zero pairs are worth nothing. Then, I got n=6-2. So I solved 6-2, which led me to n=4. Finally, I verified by plugging in what n equals where n is supposed to go.
Subtractive: First, I isolated the variable by adding +3 to the left side, then I also did it on the other side to balance it out. Next, I crossed out -3 and +3 because they are zero pairs. Next I solved 7+3. Then I got n=10. Finally, I verified by plugging in what n equals where n is supposed to go.Multiplicitave: First, I isolated the variable by dividing 3n by 3 on the left side, and I also did it on the right side to balance it out. Then I crossed out 3 and 3 because they cancel eachother out. Next, I solved 6/3. Then I got n=2. Finally, I verified by plugging in what n equals where n is supposed to go.


ATTENTION PLEASE ! : On, my title of the picture there, I meant to put DIVISIVE, not DIVISITIVE. Thank you. :)

Divisive: First, I isolated the variable by multiplying n by 2. Then I got 2n/2. I also did it on the other side to balance it out. Then I crossed out the 2 and the 2, because they cancel eachother out. Then I solved 4(2) and I got n=8. Finally, I verifiedby plugging in the what n equals where n is supposed to go.

Bob: Would you like to learn about Combining like terms?
Jack:sure,why not. I have nothing better to do.
Bob: What is n+3-5n+12?
Jack: Is the answer -6n+15?
Bob: The answer is -5n+15.
Jack:I was for sure i got it.
Bob: The -5n stays the same then you add the 3+12 and that is 15. That is how you get -5n+15.
Jack:Thanks for all the help you gave me.
