Students show what they know about decimal operations and equivalency between fractions, decimals, and percents.
Knowing the language of word problems helps students write equations which is a skill used in Algebra.
Given a set fraction amount students will be able to decompose into a sum of fractions in more than one way.
This is a hands on activity to get the students thinking about how to describe data sets.
Students will be able to use a combination of drawing, dictating, or writing to narrate a single event and provide a reaction to what happened. This lesson centers around the book "The Song and Dance Man", a great Grandparents Day activity!
Students use area models to find the total area of a store, home, or other real world space.
Students illustrate and write out notes for a plan (or several plans) to mitigate the effects of a local weather hazard.
Area comes alive when you design your own space.
Understanding area and perimeter can help children work on solutions to very important, real world problems.
Adding sensory languages makes your writing so good you can see, hear, smell, taste and touch it. This lesson will show you how to use descriptive sensory language in order to develop and capture the experiences and characters in a narrative.
Differences between shapes are determined through measurement skills.
Using data and prior knowledge, students explain their observations, measurements and understanding of various plant's external parts and how they help the plant survive in its environment.
Today we are picking apart this story and discussing it in great detail so that we can set the foundation for our comparing and contrasting activity on our Day 3 lesson.
In this lesson, students will work with "The True Story of the Three Little Pigs" Jon Scieszkaby. They will describe the characters, setting, and key details in the story and help the teacher record the details on a circle map.
Students compare the distributive property to sending invitations at a birthday party.
Children need to move from the manipulative expressions of the distributive property into the mathematical equations eventually. This lesson is the first step in leading them to that goal.
The children have been practicing decomposing areas and now digits in order to understand and use the distributive property.
Students model division using whole numbers and fractions and divide whole numbers and fractions using the standard algorithm.
How can you split $27 equally between 4 people? Students apply what they know about division to divide with whole numbers and decimals.
Where does the decimal point go in the quotient? Students use estimation and number sense skills to work on dividing with decimals.
