    • Check homework – Lesson 5 examples 1abc (tiles and algebra)
    • Homework: Lesson 5 examples 2abc done both using algebra tiles (draw it out) and algebra
    • Homework: Create at least 3 basic elements of line art
  • Wrap-up
    • Homework for Thursday: Lesson 5 examples 2abc (tiles and algebra)
    • Homework for Thursday: Create at least 3 different basic elements of string art
    • Period 4: Put up all the chairs
