Week of November 25th

 

 

Math:  Each student will prepare a Thanksgiving Dinner for 8 people using grocery store ads.  They will have to plan for the meat, salad or fruit, 3 veggies, bread, dessert and drink.  Students will use multiplication to determine the prices and quantities for each food item. 

 

 

Multiplication Pass Offs:

 

Students are required to correctly answer 25 problems in one minute and fifteen seconds in the third grade.  Please use flashcards, computer games, etc. to practice these at least 10 minutes a night at home.

 

Students have been learning the doubling strategy (2X6 can be solved by doubling 6 to get 12) this past week in order to pass off on the 2's before the Thanksgiving holidays.

 

Details about the order and sequence of multiplication pass offs will be coming soon!!
