Some everyday tricks are so useful and simple they can come in handy to more than one generation. Yet over time, they’re somehow forgotten, and they turn into what’s called “grandma’s tips.”
Today we began our Division Unit! We began by looking at Topic 6 with our Pearson enVision books and videos. We will also be looking at Topic 7 as the next couple of week's progress. All of these videos can be accessed online through your child's Ready Hub account. They will select the Pearson Easy Bridge icon and be automatically directed to their page. We use this in class frequently, so they know how to get logged in. Just like at school, their username is their student ID and their password is the same one they use to log into Ready Hub at school. We also created an Understanding Division anchor chart in class! Below is an example of what we filled out on our anchor charts in class today. Just as we did with our Multiplication Representations anchor chart, we showed different ways to represent division problems using models and equations. The most important vocabulary that was introduced in this unit were: 1. Dividend 2. Divisor 3. Quotient These vocabulary word cards were sent home today along with 6 other words for practice from our enVision math books. These can be used at home to practice vocabulary words while your child is working on home work, practicing, or just for fun! :)

Distributive Property (concept & practice): "doodle notes" - When students color or doodle in math class, it activates both hemispheres of the brain at the same time. There are proven benefits of this cross-lateral brain activity: - new learning - relaxation (less math anxiety) - visual connections - better memory & retention of the content! **This resource is also available in a DISCOUNTED bundle: Expressions & Equations Bundle Students fill in the sheets, answer the questions, and color, doodle or embellish. Then, they can use it as a study guide later on. Content includes: - concept of distributing (based on doubling, tripling a recipe and how it applies to each ingredient) - definition of the distributive property - distributing a negative - practice applying the property without any variables - how to distribute with variables - simplifying and combining like terms to write distributed expression in simplest form - higher level practice with variables Check out the preview for more detail about this item and the research behind it. Visual note taking strategies like sketch notes or doodle notes are based on dual coding theory. When we can blend the text input with graphic/visual input, the student brain processes the information differently and can more easily convert the new learning into long-term memory. This strategy also integrates the left and right hemispheres of the brain to increase focus, learning, and retention!
