Back-to-School Night 2013

Here is some information & links from my presentation.

Parent Information Packet

Brief example of what students will learn to do in MATH according to the CCSS:

Fourth grade students perform multi-digit arithmetic (345x56). They use large whole numbers to fluently add and subtract and to develop fluency with multiplication and division (including quotients with remainders). They develop an understanding of fraction equivalence, addition and subtraction of fractions (with like denominators) and multiplication of fractions by whole numbers. Students classify geometric shapes based on properties (i.e. parallel or perpendicular sides, angle measurements and symmetry).

Students in fifth grade apply their understanding of fractions and fraction models to represent the addition and subtraction of fractions with unlike denominators. They develop an understanding of the multiplication of fractions and, in limited cases, the division of fractions. Students develop fluency in multiplying and dividing decimals to hundredths and finalize fluency in using the four operations with whole numbers. They find the volume of right rectangular prisms and classify two-dimensional figures into categories based on their properties. Students graph points on a coordinate plane to solve real-world problems and interpret the coordinate value of points in the context of the situation.
