 * I worked with Rachel, Chianne, and Jessika on our "About Me" paragraph. We worked on what else we could add, punctuation, and capitalization. We all found mistakes in each others. I had fun with this because I got to work with friends, and write a paragraph about me and what I like to do. **

 * I think the hardest thing in math or pre-algebra is solving a variable equation that has mostly variables in it. For example: (Y=(X/5)= -4). I think this is hard because you dont know what any of the variables are equal to. Sometimes these problems are very easy, but sometimes, like this one, they are difficult. **

 * On Study Island, I worked on 10 questions in the 7th grade Algebraic Expressions. My grade was an AD (advanced). I got one problem wrong. This is the ones that I missed: **
 * If x = 4 and y = -2, what is the value of the expression below?

 * In my group, I worked with Rachel, Chianne, and Jessika. We worked on Simplifying Algrebraic Expressions. We watched two videos, played a game, and did practice problems. I found a video, Chianne found a video, and Rachel found the game and the practice problems. We decided that my video and Rachel's game helped us the best. Here is the link for my video: **

On Monday, we found games that helped us on Illuminations. On Tuesday we worked on our Prezi, and got a lot done. We also tried to upload our Glogster on our MEWiki page. On Wednesday we mostly worked on Illuminations, but we worked on Prezi a little bit. On Thursday we tried to figure out our presentation on Illuminations. We found a good game that has to do with what we are working on. It is call Pan Balance- Expressions. The link: []. On Friday, we worked on our Prezi presentation for our Illuminations game. This is all that we did this week! **
