Chapter 1

USE ANOTHER BROWSER TO SEE ALL OF MY VIDEOS.

See videos in order, or for particular sections in the textbook. The labeling of each video (1V1, 1V2, etc.) is for students in my class. Students need to copy the contents of each video below for their Video Notebook if it has a label such as 1V1, etc.  If there is not label, then it's optional for you view it. You do not include notes for that video in the VN.  Label top of each page with the Video Label given for each video.

THE RED NUMBER STATES THE SECTION.  DO ALL THE VIDEOS LISTED UNDER EACH SECTION.  SO FOR 1.3, DO 1V2 - 1V9.

1.2 Symbols and Sets of Numbers

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNdOHChnySU

1.4 Adding Real Numbers 

1V10: Adding Integers 

Shows how to add postive and negative numbers; uses counters. 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIWPLvTNhXs 

1.5 Subtracting Real Numbers

1V11: Subtracting Integers 

Shows how to subtract postive and negative numbers; uses counters. Explains adding the opposite and two stroke method. 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0sMIJkFV1uw 

Note: In MML HW for 1.5, there may be problems where you have to replace a variable with a negative number and then raise it to an exponent.  These types of problems shouldn't be in 1.5 HW.  To understand how to do that kind of problem, see the first 3 videos below for 1.6.

1.6 Multiplying and Dividing Real Numbers

1V12: Multiplying & Dividing Positive & Negative Numbers 

Shows the rules for multiplying and dividing negative and positive numbers. Shows why negative times negative produces a negative number using counters. 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=489iteE0EB4 

1V13: Dividing by Zero (also includes zero divided by a number, multiplying by zero)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjRob36yuJI

1V14: Exponents 1-definition, meaning and evaluating 

Shows how to evaluate problems b^n with positive exponents, but where base may be negative. Explains difference when negative sign is in or out of the parentheses. 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AneubQTnoL4 

1V15: Exponents 2-evaluating variable expressions containing exponents when replacing the base with a negative number.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsYSCKyFcYs

1V16: Evaluating Algebraic Expressions 2 

Part 2 - includes replacing variables with negative numbers, using order of operations, and simplifying. 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vt6IerxYdw

1V17: Order of Operations Part 4 

Part 4 of Order of Operations: Shows examples. Contains fractions and negative numbers. 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a329hvX8yDA 

1V18: Order of Operations Part 5 

Part 5 of Order of Operations: Shows examples. Contains absolute value, negative numbers, fractions, decimals
