We have startedTopic 6: Dividing Decimals. In this topic, your child is learning to divide decimals by decimals and by while numbers. He or she will be asked to divide decimals to the hundredths place in a variety of ways, including using models, strategies based on place value, area models and the standard algorithm. Your child will also develop proficient in estimating when dividing decimals.
Standards:
5.NBT.A Understand the place value system
5.NBT.2 I can explain patterns in the number of zeros of the product when multiplying a number by powers of 10, and explain patterns in the placement of the decimal point when a decimal is multiplied or divided by a power of 10. Use whole number exponents to denote powers of 10.
5.NBT.B Perform operations with multi-digit whole numbers and with decimals to hundredths
5.NBT.7 Add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals to hundredths, using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/ or the relationship between addition and subtraction; relate the strategy to a written method and explain the reasoning used.
Topic 6 Assessment is tentatively schedule for January 6, 2018.
