7th Grade Math - Yesterday's homework WS of adding and subtracting fractions with a common denominator was corrected.  Introduction of adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators was given along with multiple examples on the board.  Students were provided with two ways of finding a common denominator (referring to last weeks lesson on Least Common Multiple) list method and the "Jealousy" method.  I've linke a video to the "Jealousy" method under the 7th Grade Math right sidebar.  A worksheet was handed out and time was given in class to work on it.  No Homework tonight.  Students will be given time in class tomorrow to complete the assignment.

Pre-Algebra - Homework WS 2-6 Practice B was corrected at the beginning of class.  Students viewed a video on Exponents (video is linked under the Pre-Algebra right sidebar) and discussed the properties of exponents.  Example problems were worked out together at the white board with the remaining time in class.  No Homework tonight.
