IReady Smore: What do you think of the new games? How will you implement?
IReady Diagnostics
- Dig into Data
- Celebrations? Setbacks? Surprises?
- Intervention/Tutorial plans
Mari's Accommodations Spreadsheet: confirm on-line testing
Cool Math Grids! Check them out!
Please look for lesson ideas in both Flocabulary and Nearpod
Great website for your Smartboards for work mats and manipulatives!
Unit 7: Decimals Unit 6 and 7 will be tested together on January 30th
- Expanded notation and numerals
- Use concrete and visual models, including money
- Tie in to the EDC counting tape
- Make connections between fractions with denominators of 10 and the place value chart
- compare and order to the hundredths
- students need to draw models (rectangles)
- use number lines to determine to the corresponding decimal
- Number Bonds work great as well
- Rounding decimals is not a 4th grade TEK, so we will skip those lessons.
- Use Bridget's anchor charts from the webinar for pictorial practice
- Decimals webinar http://alief.adobeconnect.com/p9j64dmq2ma/, enter the password Decimals.
- When demonstrating on a number line, draw lines in to make it into a bar model and discuss the similarities.
Unit 8: Add and Subtract Decimals Test is Feb. 12th. Preview the test if available.
- DECIMALS: TEK Walk:
- Whole numbers through 1 billion and decimals to hundredths.
- Use base ten materials and money.
- Were the Digi-Blocks helpful?
- The algorithm is the same as for whole numbers.
- Use grid paper to line up the digits correctly.
- Check subtraction with addition.
- Use the place value language 18 tenths = 1 one and 8 tenths, 6 tenths + 8 tenths - 14 tenths
- Review how to subtract from zeroes- Try the compensation strategy for students who are ready for it. ( 1.00- 0.56 to 0.99 - 0.55)
- Only 1 day for the real-world problems. Can we shorten any time so that we can have 2 full days with problem solving? Focus on 2-step problems.
- Whole numbers through 1 billion and decimals to hundredths.
