Animated gif of Marge, Homer, and Lisa Simpson. Homer takes a clipboard from Lisa and says, "Yeah, it's a good group."

Recall the first two HOT topic standards:

  • H1: Evaluate an expression using order of operations (may include fractions but no exponents)
  • H2: Evaluate an expression using order of operations (may include integer exponents)

As a group, find the two questions on the HOT Topics question list form Week 1 that align with these two standards (there was only one version of the HOT Topics question list in Week 1, but there will be multiple versions in the future).

As a group, for each of these two questions, work through the 6-point problem-solving framework carefully. Have a group member write up your group’s complete answers for each of the two questions (it can be a different member for each question but all group members must approve of the work).


The secretary will post the group’s work with these instructions:

  • Title of post: Week 2 group [n] post (where [n] is replaced by your group’s number)
  • Category of post: Week 2 group post
  • Post must include:
    • Names of members present
    • Answer for each of the 6-points for the Standard H1 question
    • Answer for each of the 6-points for the Standard H2 question

There are many different ways to correctly address all 6 points in the problem-solving framework. We’ll see how different each of the groups’ work looks!
