Term 1 Math Reflection
During my term 1 in math I learned about math even though it’s kinda hard for me because in my old school we only studied division,multiplication and some other stuff. Good thing Angelo,Paolo is teaching me the basics of square root, and pythargoras.

I think math is not that hard if you just know what to do it will be just so easy and for me I have to keep on studying math.

Term 2 Reflection
In term 2 we learned about prism,and volume. I like prism than volume cause prism is a lot of fun and easy. Prism taught me to measure shapes by breaking it down. Volume is kinda hard for me cause you need to find the formula so you can calculate it. Term 2 in math is fun for me I think I’m going to have more fun this term.lume

Chapter 1 : Great Book Of Integers Review

In integers, when adding both positive and negative with the same number they will cancel each other out making the answer a zero.



In Integers you can have zero pairs.

Zero pairs is when you have positive and negative number that is the same. ex. (+9) + (9-) = 0

I prefer using standard form because its easier to answer and easy to understand. ex. +9 + -1 = -10

Sign Rule: If there is even number of positive the product will be POSITIVE If there is a odd number the product will be NEGATIVE.

Chapter 2: Multiplying Integers.

In multiplying Integers you need to know the sign rule and how to multiply.

Sign Rule. Ex's.

When you have an even number of negative factors, the product will be POSITIVE. eg. (-4) x (-4) = +16

When you have an odd number of positive factors, the product will be NEGATIVE. eg. (+5) x (-4) = -20

Ways of showing how to multiply integers:

Positive x Positive = Positive: (+2) x (+3) = +6, (2) x (3) = 6 , (2) (3) = 6 or 2(3) = 6 or <span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">2 groups of (+3)

<span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Negative x Positive = Negative: (-2) x (+3), remove 2 groups of (+3)

<span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Negative x Negative = Positive: (-2) x (-3), remove 2 groups of (-3)

Chapter 3: Dividing Integers:

<span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Dividing Integers

<span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">The way of reading the dividing integers is: <span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">- How many groups of __are in__ ? <span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">- How many __'s go into__ ?

<span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Partitive Division - The making of groups or parts.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Quotative Division - Sharing with groups.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">The quotient of the two integers with the same sign der of Operations with Integers

<span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">B.E.D.M.A.S. is used to do the order of operations for integers which stands for:

Ex.<span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">(+5) x (-3) + (-6) ÷ (+3) =+4

<span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">[(+5) x (-3)] + [(-6) ÷ (+3)] =+4

<span style="font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Helvetica,FreeSans,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">(-15) + (-2) = -17

**(+7) x (-2) + (-9)** **÷ (+8) =** **[(+7) x (-2)] + [(14)** **÷ (+2)] =** **(-14) + (+**
