Enjoy looking at these pictures I received from students on Thursday showing their creative way of showing multiplication. 👏

It's going to be a fabulous Friday!!! We made it through another fun week of distance learning. I am so proud of all of you. We are learning lots of new things as we go.

Review how to multiply fractions by whole numbers. Once you have done that take the below linked quiz which I will grade. It has 5 questions.

Go to the EM site and click on the tab called Geometer's Sketchpad Activities and go to page 196 which is a good review for Liquid Volume in US Customary measurements. Practice several problems for fun. Below I have the link to my picture of the Land of Gallon poster of cups, pints, quarts, and gallons for a review. Have fun!

Lastly, play the game Angle Tangle with someone at home. If you need a reminder of directions you will find it in the game section of your SRB. You will need pencil, paper, and your protractor on your template.

The other part of math today is an outdoor activity. I want you to write and solve some multiplication problems using something other than pencil and paper. Be creative and use things like chalk, pinestraw, pinecones, pebbles, etc. to write your problems, Have fun! Send me a picture of what you created if you like. I would have fun looking at them!!!

Happy Tuesday! I hope you have had a good day so far.
Today we are going to continue to work with fractions. Below I have put 2 pictures from our Math Word Wall to help you remember how to tell if fractions are equivalent.

Complete this quiz on equivalent fractions by yourself (only take it 1 time). You can review with the above links or use your SRB for additional help. You are on your honor to complete this without a grownup's help. The results will come to me. There will be 5 multiple choice questions. I know you are going to do a great job!!!

Now I want you to complete the Math Boxes 7.3 journal page 236. I will send your parents the answer key later for you to check.

Go to the EM site and login. Once you have done that I want you to do the following:

1. Click on the buildings in the big purple tab. This will take you to the digital journal pages.

2. Click on Tile #5 (has a magnifying glass).

3. Now go to Screen 6 (this is actually Problem #6 from journal page 235 which you completed
   Monday).

4. Type in your answers to Problem #6 (a-d). I should be able to see your answers from my end
    of things. This is a test run for me to be able to check some of your work and use some problems
   and pages for grades in the future .

5.  Go back to the Home Screen and go to the games. Click the Top It game tab and play Fraction      Subtraction Top It Like Denominators.
