This week Ss learned how to use factor trees to write numbers as their prime factorization and then apply that to finding the greatest common factor of 2 or more numbers. @CommanderC429 @MrsSmithTMS #ThornePride #180WaysLionsLead #MTPSPride

Join millions who have switched to Grok.

Ss took their first middle school Math Quiz today! Ss were permitted a “5 Minute Quiz Talk” prior to taking the quiz to ease assessment anxiety. Lots of great math discussions were overheard! #thornepride #180WaysLionsLead @CommanderC429 @MrsSmithTMS

Great turnout for the 2023-24 Thorne Back to School Night! Thank you parents/guardians for sharing how you use math in your day-to-day life. @CommanderC429 @MrsSmithTMS #thornepride #180WaysLionsLead

RT @CommanderC429: THANK YOU for organizing another amazing 6th grade kickball tournament, @MathyKathy2014 ! It was extra special this year….

Ss learned how to apply multiplication & addition properties to using algebraic expressions this week. We modeled using the Distributive Property with cubes & area models too. Another great week! @CommanderC429 @MrsSmithTMS #ThornePride #MTPSpride

Closed out Week 12 with review stations. We looked at how Ss performed on the fractions & decimals test to determine their focus for review. Ss reflected afterwards. @CommanderC429 @MrsSmithTMS #ThornePride #MTPSpride @kerrigan_john

How do you turn a boring quiz review worksheet into an engaging & productive activity? Play the “Unfair Math Game”! Silly prizes, stealing & goofy faces allowed 😆 #ThornePride #MTPSpride @CommanderC429 @MrsSmithTMS

Ss worked diligently this week. Ss used Frayer Models for new vocab, evaluated algebraic expressions on the whiteboards & reviewed new ideas & vocab by completing a math wheel. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! #ThornePride #180wayslionslead #mtpspride @CommanderC429 @MrsSmithTMS

G6 Ss reviewed for & took the Ch2 Fractions & Decimals test. We started Ch5 Algebraic Expressions by completing an exploration on @PearDeck. Ss are already beginning to write algebraic expressions from word problems! @CommanderC429 @MrsSmithTMS #ThornePride #MTPSpride #G6Math

Ss showed up on Halloween w great costumes! Despite being Halloween week they learned the standard algorithms for multiplication & long division & applied them to decimals. Ss were hesitant at 1st but got the hang of it! #ThornePride #MTPSPride @CommanderC429 @MrsSmithTMS

Ss reviewed for & took a multiplying & dividing fractions quiz. Then we turned our attention to decimal place value w Decimal Yahtzee. It got competitive! We finished the week w adding & subtracting decimals. #180WaysLionsLead #ThornePride #MTPSPride @CommanderC429 @MrsSmithTMS

Ss went to the boards to multiply & divide fractions after reviewing converting btw improper fractions & mixed numbers & modeling finding quotients using fraction bars. #180WaysLionsLead #ThornePride #MTPSPride #thinkingclassroom @MrsSmithTMS @CommanderC429
