Regular Math: The kids are going to study coefficients in algebra, how to balance equations, how to write algebraic expressions, and finally calculate for rate while making line graphs to represent data. We will incorporate a real life math activity on Friday with either rates, fuel economy again, or unit percents and shopping math. We have been working on a pizza party problem solving activity. Ask your child about it! Maybe you should take a stab at it. :)
Accel Math: The kids are going to study more proportions, ratios, and rates, but with more mental strategies and practical application. We'll try to apply what we are doing to sports, driving, and/or food. Speaking of food, we have been studying the pizza part problem solving problem. Go ahead...ask your child for the work and see if you can solve it!
Real Life Math: Each day we are applying what we study to math in daily contexts and our world-whether that's in examples or full scale activities, we are emphasizing this type of thinking more and more each day!
