Essential Question: How can we solve real world problems using Algebraic Reasoning?

Standard:   7.7.EE.A.  Understand that rewriting an expression in different forms in a problem context can shed light on the problem and how the quantities in it are related...
     -For example, a + 0.05a means that "increased by 5% is the same as "multiply by 1.05."

Unit 5: Algebraic Reasoning

Objective: 

SWBAT create algebraic expressions in order to find the perimeter and area of geometric shapes with a 75% accuracy or more on the exit slip.
