MATH
Fourth Grade
4th graders will wrap up Chapter 4 Division. This week we cover Lessons 11, 12 and Lesson 8 (Partial Quotients). The Chapter 4 Review Packet will be assigned on Wednesday, corrected on Thursday and the Test will be held on Friday. Use Carmen San Diego Math Models, Skills 13-19, to practice skills in Chapter 4. Remember we need to share logins 1-4 at this time.
Multiplication Facts: Continue to practice facts. Most students should be on the 4s or 9s now having passed 2s and 5s. You can print your own worksheets from Math-drills.com, play online games (see Math Websites Tab above), or borrow some "Holey Cards" from Mrs. Hall.
Fifth Grade
5th graders wrap up Chapter 4, Multiplying Decimals, by correcting the Review packet on Monday and reviewing skills. The Test will be on Tuesday (after reviewing decimal multiplication skills). Use Carmen San Diego Math Models, Skill 19, to help with Chapter 4 skills. GOMATH Online Access: To use the website we should continue to share the logins for numbers 1 - 4 ( instead of individual student numbers).
Multiplication Facts: Continue practicing multiplication facts at home. Memorizing the squares early on (2x2,3x3,4x4) will help as we progress. You can print your own worksheets from Math-drills.com, play online games (see Math Websites Tab above), or borrow some "Holey Cards" from Mrs. Hall.
