Math: Week of 2/6-2/10


Hi 5V Math Families!

Here is what the math kids are up to this week:

Regular math:
  • We are in unit 7 and will study ambiguous number sentences, how to solve a problem with parentheses, following the order of operations, and a variety of math skills in small group. Students will review concepts they may be struggling with. We'll also write math essays. I'm also going to try to introduce the concept of fuel economy to the kids in regular math on Friday!
  • Please remember to consider if you will take the accelerated math program placement test in the spring!
  • There is no math test this week.
Accel math:
  • We are in unit 6 and are studying concepts in number theory and analysis. It sounds real formal doesn't it? Well, we're studying how to read and write number sentences, open sentences, and pre-algebra concepts with pan balances. We're also studying concepts from our math boxes. We're also writing math essays.
  • On Thursday or Friday, I will try to meet with the accel students and analyze their decisions on what they think is the most fuel efficient car is from what we've studied.
  • There is no math test this week
