Announcements:
For Spelling this week, we have review words from the past 5 weeks. Your child will receive the list of 20 words he/she is responsible for on Tuesday.

Please refer to the folders send home to follow the format for the weekly math word problems. Keep these folders at home, they do not come back to school.

Please have your children study their addition and subtraction facts as many children are not proficient with these skills. They can practice on IXL.

In Math we will be working on subtraction but some of the problems in the workbook will be horizontal. Whenever, the problems are written this way the children must rewrite the problem vertically on looseleaf paper. This procedure ensures that the children can regroup without difficulties into the proper place value columns.

The IOWAS will be completed being administered this week starting on Wednesday and concluding on Thursday.

Please make sure you registered for your Math, Reading, and S/S texts availability online.  I resent the correct codes home. This will enable you to access these books should your child forget them in school as well as let you reference what we are covering in the classroom.


Math Terminologies:

ESTIMATION RULES:
1. Decide which 2 places the number is between.
Ex. 17 is between 10 and 20 
Ex. 168 is between 100 and 200
2. Look at the place value before the place you are rounding to. If that digit is 5 or higher round up. If it's 4 and lower round down.
Ex. If you're rounding to the 10's look at the 1's place. 17 would round to 20
Ex. If you're rounding to the 100's place look at the 10's place. 168 would round to 200
Ex, If you're rounding to the 1000's place look at the 100's place. 1,264 would round to 1,000
3. If you're rounding two different numbers always round both to the lowest place value. This is used when we will be estimating sums. 
Ex. 34 + 489 would be 30 + 490 = 520 In this example both places would be rounded to the tens place.
