MATH - Weeks 7-8

 November 23 - December 4/20

As I'm catching up to posting weekly, I am combining weeks in each post. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Week 7

"Breaking Apart" Strategy:

This multiplication Strategy has you breaking apart factors into smaller factors. 

As you can see, the 8 is broken into two factors that still adds up to 8. 

You can split it any way you want. whichever is easier for you.

2 x 4 x 5= 

Hold the 2 while you multiply 4 x 5= 20

Now multiply the 2 with 20. It looks like this 2 x 20= 40

Watch the YouTube video

Practice with 9 x 7

MATH - Week 6

 November 16-20/20

**There is no printable copy for this week's learning package. 

This week, the focus continues with multiplication. Start with Factoring and finishing off the week with Halving and Doubling. 

Objective: Watch the video, then do the assignment right after. 

Day 1

1. Factoring: Reviewing Multiplication

Online Assignment:

• Lesson 1 - Finding Factors
  

Day 2

2. Skip Counting for Multiplication

Online Assignment:

• Lesson 2 - Skip Counting

Day 3

3. Halving and Doubling Rule

  

 ❇️ This strategy will only work if one or both factors are:

                1. A even number   OR

                2. Ends with a 5 or 0. 

The poster may also help you understand: 

If you halve one factor, then the other factor must double up.

• ex. The 4 is cutting in half to 2, then 2 is cutting in half to 1. 
• At the same time, the 9 is doubling up to 18, then 18 is doubling up to 36.

Think: which is easier to solve for you?

a. 4 x 9

b. 2 x 18

c. 1 x 36
