Math Update


We just finished our Unit 5 math test, and overall the kids did great work! This unit started with large numbers and finished with fractions and decimals. I was very impressed with how well the students understood decimals especially. I'll share the results of this test at Parent/Teacher Conferences.

Our next unit is geometry, which we haven't covered yet this year. We start with two-dimensional objects like lines, line segments, and rays. Toward the end of the unit we spend more time with three-dimensional objects likes cones, spheres, and cylinders. With the different three-dimensional objects students will need to identify the bases, faces, edges, and vertices.
