To Parents and Adults at Home … Unit 2 – Whole Numbers

drford — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 13:31:44 +0000

Your child’s class is beginning a mathematics unit on whole numbers. The students will explore very large numbers, and develop and refine strategies for adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing multidigit numbers. They will learn which method of computation (estimation, mental math, paper and pencil, or technology)
is appropriate in a given situation. They will explore strategies, such as using the inverse operation, to check answers to computational questions.

In this unit, your child will:
·        Read and write whole numbers in standard, expanded, exponential, and written forms.
·        Use place value to represent and read whole numbers.
·        Compare and order whole numbers.
·        Identify and describe multiples and factors to 100.
·        Identify and describe composite and prime numbers to 100.
·        Estimate sums, differences, products, and quotients.
·        Use mental math to add, subtract, multiply, and divide.
·        Add four 3-digit numbers and subtract from a 5-digit number.
·        Multiply and divide by a 2-digit number.
·        Pose and solve multistep problems.

Here are some activities you can do to enhance your child’s learning:
·        Together, plan the cost of a family outing or trip.
·        Help your child find and read large numbers in newspapers and magazines.
·        Encourage your child to estimate the total cost of several items as you shop.
