Periods 2 & 4  Math

Standard(s): 6.EE.3. Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3 (2 + x) to produce the equivalent expression 6 + 3x; apply the distributive property to the expression 24x + 18y to produce the equivalent expression 6 (4x + 3y); apply properties of operations to y + y + y to produce the equivalent expression 3y. Objective:  I will use generic rectangle area models to represent multiplication of multi-digit numbers. Agenda:  1.
