8th Grade Math: Today in math students began class with the Problem of the Day.  Next, students continued learning about factors and multiples.  We then continued talking about LCMs and students were introduced to a second method of finding an LCM by listing each numbers prime factorization, circling any factors they have in common and multiplying the factors to find the LCM.  After some teacher led instruction, and several examples, students were assigned some book work, page 806 #20-28 as homework, to be due Tuesday in class.
