ASPIRE 5 Math
January 17, 2016
- The students took the unit test over multiplying and dividing with decimals
- Friday was Star Wars Day in ASPIRE 5 so in math we added the values of character names from the Star Wars movies. Our ABC chart we used had a fractional value for each letter. In order to add there was LOTS of math going on: equivalent fractions, adding fractions, and simplifying fractions.
What Can You Do at Home?
Here are some suggestions for this week!
Textbook - As we continue our work with adding and subtracting fractions these pages would be good practice: 228, 229, 230, and 234. Students are welcome to practice these pages and turn them in!
Prodigy - your child has an account here. I have set up different kinds of problems for them to practice.
Sumdog - you child has an account here as well. There are games to play and contests to enter. Lots of fun!
Coding - there are many coding apps and websites that are great for kids to work on at home. Coding is great for logical thinking and problem solving.
