Math
Grade 4: Today we related division and multiplication. Multiplication is repeated addition and division is repeated subtraction. We also learned using arrays to find the family of facts. Make sure both pages of math are completed.
Grade 5: Today we used estimation to determine whether a calculated problem is reasonable. Remember to use the related fact family when multiplying by multiples of 10. Read problems carefully to make sure you understand the meaning of the numbers given in the questions and the product or quotient.
