Your child could have math homework every day M-TH. We don't believe in swamping kids with work after they have sat all day- but we do believe that parents should be aware of what we are focusing on. We do usually try to give time in class to start Homework in case there are questions. Some kids do work at a faster pace, so if your child says they finished, you may still want to ask to see the work to check over(We know, your child is super smart, but even super smart kids need help sometimes:-) We love to hear from parents directly. If you have a question on problem with something we've done, please let us try to answer or fix it. We will be covering the following standards this year: Multiplication of 4 digit by 2 digit numbers using algorithm. Division of 4 digit by 2 digit numbers using any strategy. Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division of Fractions with unlike denominators. Order of Operations(using parenthesis, exponents, +,-, x and /- PEMDAS) Finding Volume of Rectangular Prisms Categorizing 2-D figures Graphing on the Coordinate Plane Converting measurements in the Customary(US) and Metric systems Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and Division of Decimals(to the thousandths place) Rounding and understanding decimals Multiplying by powers of 10 Obviously- this is a huge amount of information! Please encourage your child to stay caught up and ask questions. |
