STANDARDS Standard 7.EE.3 Solve multi-step real-life and mathematical problems posed with positive and negative rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions, and decimals), using tools strategically. Apply properties of operations to calculate with numbers in any form; convert between forms as appropriate; and assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies. Standard 7.EE.4 Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning about the quantities. END OF UNIT COMPETENCY WITH LANGUAGE SUPPORTS I can solve multi-step real-life problems and assess the reasonableness of their solution. Language Supports: ●​ Vocabulary (solution) I can apply my knowledge of two-step equations to write and solve two-step equations in real-world situations. Language Supports: ●​ Vocabulary (equation) I can solve real-world problems and consider the reasonableness of the solutions of the inequality in the real-world context of the problems. Language Supports: ●​ Vocabulary (inequality) I can apply my understanding of solving multiplication and division inequalities to real-world contexts. Language Supports: ●​ Vocabulary (inequality) DIFFERENTIATION IN ACTION Skill Building Unit 8 Fluency Practice on Adding and Subtracting rational numbers.
