wish I could do math

***********************

If you add, subtract, multiply, and divide, and understand why/when/how to use those operations, then you can “do math”. Everything else builds on and is connected to those algorithms/patterns.

A few most important concepts, from this 7th-grade math teacher’s perspective, is realizing the inverse relationships (undoing) of addition/subtraction and multiplication/division, the fraction bar means divide, a ratio is a comparison of two quantities, and following the order of operations.
