Math

 

We are currently working a multiplication unit.

 

Grade 4: working on multiplication up to 9 x 9 and have touched on multiplying two digit numbers by 1 digit.  We have gone over strategies for multiplying any number by 0, 1, 10, 100, 100 and 1000.  This week they will continue to look at multiplying numbers such as 35 x 7 and move on to basic division.

 

It is very important that students know their multiplication facts. Some students have mastered facts up to 9 x 9 and can just review them periodically. If students are still struggling to recall these facts automatically, they should be studied frequently at home.

Grade 5: working on multiplication of larger numbers and reviewing multiplication of two or three digit numbers by one digit. We have reviewed some strategies on how this can be done and worked on sample questions. We will be moving on to multiplying two digit by two digit and division of larger numbers.

It is very important that students know their multiplication facts. Some students have mastered facts up to 9 x 12 and can just review them periodically. If students are still struggling to recall these facts automatically, they should be studied frequently at home.

Mr. Hache is doing an English song this year with Grade 4/5. Here are the lyrics and background track for anyone interested in practicing at home. 

I'll be home with bells on

I'll be home with bells on
Trim the tree and wrap the presents turn the Christmas music on
This Christmas I'll be home with bells on
I've traveled around this country crossed the waters deep and wide
Made lots of friends and memories brought joy to other's lives
It's Christmas time again another year has come and gone
And I can't keep from wonderin' how the old folks are at home
I'll be home with bells on
I'll be home with bells on
Trim the tree and wrap the presents turn the Christmas music on
This Christmas I'll be home with bells on
When the snow is on the meadow and the sleigh bells jingle bright
And the kids are singing jingle bells around the Christmas lights
As daddy stokes the fire and mama puts the turkey on
There ain't nothing going to slow me down this Christmas I'll be home
I'll be home with bells on
I'll be home with bells on
Trim the tree and wrap the presents turn the Christmas music on
This Christmas I'll be home with bells on
I'll be home with bells on
I'll be home with bells on
Trim the tree and wrap the presents turn the Christmas music on
This Christmas I'll be home with bells on
