Math Concepts:
It is almost mandatory to memorize the times tables. Buy or make a set of flash cards and pull them out anytime!
My old class did this in car rides, waiting in line and other "down times" during the day.
That was one reason our county had the highest test scores in the state!
We had a hard time with several problems on our chapter one math test.
Here are the problems that most of the class missed.
15. What is the place and value of the 4 in 64,923,200?
The correct answer was b) millions; 4,000,000
13. Which is seven million, eighty-six thousand, twelve?
The correct answer was c). 7,000,000+80,000+6,000+10+2
4. Which is the standard form for three million, twenty-five thousand, four hundred six?
C. 3,025,406
1. Which is the standard form for two hundred eighty-six?
C. 286
This was an interesting one, most students chose A. 20086. Do you see why?
As always, please work on math facts with your child! I cannot emphasize the importance enough. You cannot do division without the multiplication facts memorized...
