Rounding (week 4) 8/27 - 8/31

We are now discussing rounding and number comparison. Students should be studying their math facts daily. We will be getting into multiplication and division soon. Students will also be learning about factors, prime and composite numbers, and equivalent fractions. If students know their facts, these are very easy topics for students to understand.

Homework: Remember to include the word problem, the answer and the work that supports it, and a detailed explanation, written in paragraph form, explaining HOW you solved the problem and WHY.

• Monday: Greg has $4 in his wallet. His sister Kelly has 3 times as much in her wallet. How much does Kelly have in her wallet?
• Tuesday: What is 587,111 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand?
• Wednesday: Keri split a deck of 52 playing cards into piles of 13. How many piles did Keri make?
• Thursday: What is 14, 196 rounded to the nearest thousand?
