Instructional Math Video

In order to provide the best possible learning experience for your students, I've included a QR code link to a video that I created to assist with using this worksheet. While the video is not professionally produced, it can be an incredibly helpful tool for students who are learning remotely, were absent during the activity, or are homeschooling. Additionally, it can serve as a substitute lesson plan in case of unexpected absences or classroom disruptions.

The video includes several examples and provides step-by-step instructions that can help students complete the activity successfully. By offering this additional resource, we hope to provide your students with the support they need to master the concepts covered in the worksheet.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Know that numbers that are not rational are called irrational. Understand informally that every number has a decimal expansion; for rational numbers show that the decimal expansion repeats eventually, and convert a decimal expansion which repeats eventually into a rational number.
Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of expressions (e.g., π²). For example, by truncating the decimal expansion of √2, show that √2 is between 1 and 2, then between 1.4 and 1.5, and explain how to continue on to get better approximations.
Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations of the form 𝘹² = 𝘱 and 𝘹³ = 𝘱, where 𝘱 is a positive rational number. Evaluate square roots of small perfect squares and cube roots of small perfect cubes. Know that √2 is irrational.
