Commutative property of addition: in addition, numbers may be added together in any order.
Identity of property of addition: when zero is added to a number the result is the number itself.
Distributive property of addition: the sum of two numbers times a third number is equal to the sum of each addend times the third number.

Number Assessment e-asttle
We have the Number paper test instead. The planned activities will be completed for homework and tomorrow.
10K had their e-asttle test instead because they missed it last week. The planned activities for Monday and Tuesday will be squished into the remainder of the week and for homework. Note that many students were finished after 30 minutes so had time to write their reflection and start on the algebra tasks.
Conference Day: Work through Chapter 5: Algebraic Expressions starting on page 71. Spend one hour, then reflect on your website about how well you worked and what you learned. Use the instructions and answers in the back of the book when you get stuck. Mark your work. Most students will complete 3 pages, some will complete 6 or more pages.
No Book? Try the year 10 sample algebra pages in google classroom.
If you prefer to complete transum trophies try these:
Level 1 - Collecting like terms when 1 term is repeated
Level 2 - Collecting like terms when 2 terms are repeated
Level 3 - Multiplying a single positive integer over a bracket
Level 4 - Multiplying a single negative integer over a bracket
Level 5 - Multiplying a variable over a bracket
Level 6 - Expanding products of two simple binomials
Level 7 - Expanding products of two binomials
Level 8 - Squaring a binomial
Level 9 - Simplifying more complex expressions involving brackets
Level 10 - Expanding products of three binomials (cubic expressions)
Extra for experts:
Level 1 - Factorising an expression with a constant factor. Example: 40h + 88
Level 2 - Factorising an expression with a variable factor. Example: 23h + 3h²
Level 3 - Factorising an expression with both a constant and variable factor. Example: 10a + 2ab
Level 4 - Writing an expression of two parts that can be separately factorised. Example: 3a + ab + 5w + 4wy
Level 5 - Writing an expression as the product of two binomials. Example: 5a + 5b + ac + bc
Extra for experts:
Level 6 - Factorising an expression which is the difference between two squares. Example: c² - 81
Level 7 - Factorising a quadratic where the squared term coefficient is 1. Example: c² - 13c + 36
Level 8 - Factorising a quadratic where the squared term coefficient is not 1. Example: 4a² + 5a - 6
Level 9 - Mixed factorisation questions Example: b² + 6b + 9

The common test will be hand written and marked over the holidays.
We will do a similar test in class in silence, then mark it together on Monday.
Learning from our mistakes. Students will know what they need to study by looking at the questions they got wrong.
Getting ready for the test tomorrow
Hand written algebra test completed in silence individually. This will be marked over the holidays.
