2/3/-2/7

This week we are continuing to learn about fractions! We will be learning about fractions for the next few months. This week we are focusing on adding and subtracting fractions and mixed numbers with the same denominators. As a challenge, we will learn about adding and subtracting mixed numbers with different denominators.

1/27-1/31

This week we are continuing to learn about fractions! We will be learning about fractions for the next few months. This week we are focusing on being able to identify fractions on a number line, as well as comparing fractions on a number line.
 
I will be sending home some practice work for those who would like to complete it. It is not required or graded.

1/21-1/24

This week we are finishing pattern recognition with numbers, shapes, and input/output charts and moving on to the best unit: fractions! Fractions can be challenging for some students, so if you need extra resources or ideas on what to review at home, please let me know. 
 
We are beginning our unit by reviewing the basics of fractions (numerator, denominator, identifying fractions). Then we will move on to comparing fractions (greater than, less than, or equal).

1/13-1/17

This week we are reviewing what we have learned so far this school year. We are focusing heavily on multiplication, division, and fact families. We will work on factors, multiples, and patterns in multiplication.

12/16-12/20

This week we are learning about factor pairs, multiples, and patterns in multiplication/division. Please practice basic multiplication and division facts at home. This unit will be very challenging without these skills.

12/9-12/13

This week we are doing a review of multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction before we take our long division test. We will also be learning about long division with remainders.

12/2-12/6

This week we are continuing to work on long division! We are working on triple-digit divided by one digit without remainders (ex: 235/5). Students who are feeling comfortable with this will be introduced to long division with remainders.
 
I highly recommend reviewing basic division skills at home. If you need websites or practice papers, please let me know.

11/18-11/22

This week we are moving on to long division! We will review 3rd grade division (ex: 45 / 5). Then, we will learn how to divide larger numbers and eventually problems with remainders.
 
I highly recommend reviewing basic division skills at home. If you need websites or practice papers, please let me know.

11/12-11/15

Students did not get to take their math test on Friday, so we will be taking it on Thursday this week. Students will be tested on the standard/star method, area model, and distributive property for double-digit multiplication. 
 
I will be sending home practice problems. They are not required, but students can receive extra credit if they bring them in on or before the day of the test.

11/4-11-8

We are continuing to work with double-digit multiplication. Students will continue to review the standard/star method and area model, but will also learn distributive property. Students will have a test on the three methods on Friday.
 
Please continue to review 1-10 times tables at home.

10/28-11/1

We are continuing to work with double-digit multiplication. Students will continue to review the standard/star method, but will also learn how to use an area model and the lattice method. 
 
Please continue to review 1-10 times tables at home.

10/21-10/25

This week we are working on estimating the sums of multi-digit multiplication problems. Students will round to the nearest tens place and use compatible rounding (to the nearest 5s place). We will also learn how to use an area model and the lattice method to multiply two-digit numbers.
 
Please review place value and times tables at home.

10/14-10/18

This week we are continuing to work on how to multiply by one-digit numbers. Students will also learn how to use the Stand Algorithm (or the star method) to multiply multi-digit numbers. 
 
Vocabulary: product, partial product, regroup, standard algorithm, place value
