Show What You Know

We are coming to the end of our Puzzle Packing (Whole Number Unit).  Students will be working on a Performance Task question in class on Tuesday.  We will be doing a few days of review to consolidate our understanding.

We will be having a Show What You Know (end of the unit assessment) either Friday October 18th or Tuesday October 22nd.

Below is a copy of the Success Criteria we co-created in class today.

Number Sense - Exploring Whole Numbers

What You Need to Know

Overall Expectation:

• read, represent, compare, and order whole numbers to 100 000

Specific Expectations:

• represent, compare, and order whole numbers to 100 000, using a variety of tools
• demonstrate an understanding of place value in whole numbers  to 100 000, using a variety of tools and strategies
• read and print in words whole numbers to ten thousand
• solve problems that arise from real-life situations and that relate to the magnitude of whole numbers up to 100 000 
• solve problems involving the addition, subtraction, and multiplication of whole numbers, 

Process Expectations:

• Communicating - communicate mathematical understanding with others
• Representing - represent mathematical thinking in different ways

Learning Goals: We are learning to read, represent, compare and order whole numbers to 100 000.

I can demonstrate an understanding of multiplying by 10 and the shift to the left in the place value chart as the number becomes 10 times larger

I can demonstrate an understanding of dividing by 10 and the shift to the right in the place value chart as the number becomes 10 times smaller

I can read in words whole numbers to ten thousand, using meaningful contexts

I can print in words whole numbers to ten thousand, using meaningful contexts

I can solve problems that arise from real-life situations and that relate to the magnitude of whole numbers up to 100 000

Thank you to all those that were able to make it to Meet the Teacher Night last week.  It was a pleasure to meet each of you.  

I look forward to talking to each of you more about your child and their progress at Progress Report Interviews in November.

I hope that we can use this blog to give you a glimpse into what and how your child is learning math this year!  If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me. 

I am looking forward to an exciting year of learning with your child!
