The following videos were inspired by Common Craft and their line of informative videos. Student groups selected a math topic,wrote their script,and completed paper cutouts to help teach a math concept. Students found this project to be a little more challenging than it first appeared,but everyone had a good time making their videos. [...]

You might have noticed that as we have begun to learn how to divide using 2-digit divisors,that all of our problems have contained the same divisors (36 or 54). We have done this so that students could see from the beginning that the process was the same and as a result,have some success. [...] With about 10 minutes left during iTime,we decided to work one division problem using two different methods. Using the SMART airliner,students will demonstrate 8561 ÷ 4 using the traditional division algorithm and the partial quotients method. The partial quotients method involves students using compatible numbers (usually with multiples of 10) to divide or [...] by Madison D. This week in Math,we are learning about Algebraic Equations. Algebraic Equations are like a balanced scale –both sides always need to be equal. You have to figure out what x equals. SO start out with the equation: x + 2x + 5 = x + 19 You [...] by Christine V. The Red Team did a project with numerical palindromes. A palindrome is a number that is written the same from from the front and back such as 949. First,Mr. Gann gave us a regular number. We then reversed the number and added those two numbers together. If the sum was not [...] by Austin R. Today the Red Team played Decimal Jeopardy in math class. It was just like the real show. The reason we did it was to review for our test on Monday. A-side played against B-side. The categories were Decimal Models,Expanded Form,Ordering Decimals,Equivalent Decimals,Potpourri,and more. A person [...] Welcome to our classroom blog! I will be teaching 5th Grade Math on the Red Team for the 2009-2010 school year. I am in the beginning stages of creating a communication source for my classroom. Check back in August to see what we are learning! Classes begin August 18th. |  | ||||
