Attention Raider Nation Parents!! We’d like to introduce you to the IM® 6-8 Math curriculum authored by Illustrative Mathematics Family Materials for our upcoming Math Unit. Here are the video lesson summaries for Grade 6-8, Unit 4. Each video highlights key concepts and vocabulary that students learn across one or more lessons in the unit. The content of these video lesson summaries is based on the written Lesson Summaries found at the end of lessons in the curriculum. The goal of these videos is to support students in reviewing and checking their understanding of important concepts and vocabulary.

Here are some possible ways families can use these videos:
• Keep informed on concepts and vocabulary students are learning about in class.
• Watch with their student and pause at key points to predict what comes next or think up other examples of vocabulary terms (the bolded words).
• Consider following the Connecting to Other Units links to review the math concepts that led up to this unit or to preview where the concepts in this unit lead to in future units.
