Hi 5V Math Families,
How are you? We are journeying through the middle of Unit 4
this week. Last week we studied what factors are, prime factorization, how to
find the greatest common factor, how to convert between fractions, decimals,
& percents, how to find the part of a whole number by understanding that a
percent is just that, and finally we ended the week by trying to learn what a
down payment on a home represents and how the percent of a whole is a significant
factor in buying a home.
For this week here is what we have on tap:
Monday: Study strategies for how to add fractions with
unlike denominators.
Tuesday: There is no math because of an assembly.
Wednesday: Understanding percent and parts in authentic
problems: Part 1
Thursday: Understanding percent and parts in authentic problems:
Part 2
Friday: Analyzing the relationship between down payment,
loan, and mortgage
