Math update with Mrs. Neal

Hello 4th grade families,
This week in math we focused on using place value to help us with multiplying and dividing with multiples of 10, 100, and 1,000. Continual practice of math facts would help greatly, please remind your students they should be doing 20 minutes of math homework each night so when they have nights that they finish early they should use that extra time to practice math facts. Also, if your student gets a 1 on an assessment, please sign it in the indicated place and return it so I can see that you have seen the grade.
This week we will be learning the partial sum strategy for addition. On last week's blog post I put a video for the partial sum strategy so please review that if need be. This is the only method of addition that we will be focusing on for now. The homework for this week will be as follows:

Week of 10/23
4th grade:
Monday- Partial sum page, back
Tuesday- 3RD GRADE IXL C.1, write out 5 problems using partial sum strategy to turn in
Wednesday- Subtraction page 1, back
Thursday- Subtraction page 2, back

Thanks and have a great week!
