Using the Order of Operations

Evaluate mulƟ-step numerical expressions using order of operaƟons.
JOURNAL QUESTIONS
1

If you have the expression 8 + (5 × 2) - 3, how do you decide what to calculate first? Why is it important to follow the order of operaƟons?
2

Imagine you need to solve the expression 12 ÷ (4 + 2) × 3. How would the answer change if you did not use parentheses? What does this tell you about the order of operaƟons?
3

Think about the expression 7 × 2 + (9 - 3) ÷ 2. How can you use the order of operaƟons to simplify it, and what is the importance of each step in geƫng the correct answer?

Determining Rules for Describing Patterns as an Expression

Given a numerical paƩern, idenƟfy and write a rule that can describe the paƩern as an expression.
JOURNAL QUESTIONS
1

Look at this paƩern: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32. What is happening to the numbers as the paƩern conƟnues? Can you write a rule to describe how to get the next number?

2
Here is a paƩern: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15. Can you find a rule that explains how the paƩern is growing? How would you write that rule as an expression?

3
In this paƩern: 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, each number increases in a certain way. Can you idenƟfy the rule for this paƩern and write it as an expression?
STEP 1:




STEP 4: This cut forms three large tabs that can be used for a three-quarter display. MA.5.AR.3.1

STEP 3: Cut the tab off at the top of the fold line. Fold a sheet of standard paper S T E P 2 : Cut up the middle of the inside towards the peak of the fold. This cut forms two large tabs. (8 ½” x 11) using a horizontal (hamburger -like) fold.
