I finished what we started yesterday talking about equations with the variable on both sides of the equation. (Looks like... 4x + 3 = 5x - 7)
We worked through a few problems together and then I gave the kids five problems to do in class, which they worked diligently on and thus do not have anything for homework this evening.
I can't tell you how proud I am of these kids--they are working with some really head-y stuff here... and they are doing just fabulously!
I'll post the notes and examples from today on the class docs in a minute.
