Teacher Talk: Math and Mrs. Pass

Today's Teacher Talk comes from Mrs. Pass and her math class:

"Dr. Pelech and I did our team teaching on Multiplicative Inverse of Equations. We showed the students how to use the original equation and subtract from both sides using a two-step equation.

We use the Multiplicative Inverse of Equation by first modeling the problem on the board then we let each student go the board and see how well they can model and get the problem correct,by solving an equation with fractional coefficients, remembering to check your solution by substituting the value of the variable in the original equation. I hope this will help you to understand our goals.

Dr. James Pelech is a Assistant Professor at Benedictine University,Benedictine is in partnership with St. Ethelreda doing a study entitled How Middle School Students Perceive Their Learning Process.The results of this study will be an important part in helping middle school students learn mathematics."

Thank you Mrs. Pass (and her math students) for the fine Teacher Talk contribution!
