B and C: In these classes, we worked on the list methods of finding factors and multiples, common factors and common multiples and GCF and LCM.
E and F: In these classes, we worked on listing factors and multiples and finding numbers that are 'abundant', 'deficient' and 'perfect'.
Homework:
B and C: CM ws. pg. 40
E and F: CM ws. pg. 14
There will be a quiz on Monday, 12/21 on factors and multiples.
Welcome to 6 Blue Math! Come and visit any time to see what's happening in math class on a daily basis. I will be posting homework assignments and projects as they are assigned (as long as the school network is cooperating!)

Computer Lab
We were in the computer lab for our math class today. We took a quick look at the factor game, and tried to develop strategies to 'beat' the computer at the game! Be thinking about your strategies, because tomorrow you will have a chance to challenge a human opponent.
Homework:
Clean out the 'daily work and notes' section of your binder. Please place all of that work in a folder and keep it at home. We may need to take a second look at some of those papers later in the year, so please don't lose them.
