Week 3

This week we are moving on from place value. Please be sure that your student can draw a place value chart from the millions to the thousandths place. This week we will be focusing on Addition and Subtraction with multiple step problem solving, as well as rounding whole numbers and decimals. At home, your student will benefit from rounding decimal numbers to the nearest whole number. They will also benefit from looking in the newspaper and adding up a total amount of numbers and subtracting it from some type of budget. For example, if you went to the store with $10.00, and you purchase one item for $1.00, another item for $1.50, 2 items for .50. How much change would you receive? They should be able to answer this question. Students will continue to have homework each night this week. Please contact me if you have any questions.
