7th Grade Review of Operations Part I Students will create an excel spreadsheet that reviews the rules/tricks/tips for operations of these number types: o whole numbers o integers o fractions o decimals o exponents. The columns will be labeled Number Type, addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The rows will be the 5 number types listed above. The cells for addition and subtraction for Exponents will be left blank. Students will need to write the rules/trick/tip into each cell. They should be able to create a spreadsheet that is easy to read with gridlines and an easy to read font. Rules can be a phrase, a trick, or a mnemonic device. Cells should be large enough so that no writing gets cut off. This is a personal review sheet so it should be written in a way that the student and teacher can both understand what is written. Some rules require more writing than others (i.e. addition of integers) . Be sure to ask Ms. Ray how to wrap text to make things fit! We’ll use 8.5 x 14 paper if needed. Stay tuned for part 2.
