Math:

This week in math the students will begin to build non-unit fractions less than one whole from unit fractions.  The students will represent parts of one whole as fractions with number bonds and build and write fractions greater than one whole using unit fractions. We will also compare unit fractions by reasoning about their size using fraction strips and different sized models representing the whole.

Things to practice and review at home:

Help your child partition things at home into equal parts 

Practice identifying number patterns using multiplication, addition, and/or subtraction strategies.

Practice solving two-step word problems involving all four operations
Practice multiplication facts 2 to 10
