Mrs. Gaynor's Classroom: Math Resources

Overview

There are 6 Eureka math modules that we will work through this school year.  These modules build upon each other and it naturally provides students with opportunities to work towards mastery in the 5th grade math standards through the course of the year.  Students will tackle complex word problems using the Read, Draw, Write strategy.  Special emphasis of this strategy and what it looks like at the 5th grade level will be showcased in class and referenced often.

Module 1: Place Value and Decimal Fractions

Module 2: Multi- Digit Whole Number and Decimal Fraction Operations

Module 3: Addition and Subtraction of Fractions

Module 4: Multiplication and Division of Fractions and Decimal Fractions

Module 5: Addition and Multiplication with Volume and Area

Module 6: Problem Solving with the Coordinate Plane

Eureka Family Support

Below are Parent Tip Sheets that have been created by Eureka.  These sheets provide an overview of each topic and include suggested strategies and models, connections to previous learning, key vocabulary, and tips to support learning at home.


 

 

ST Math

Just like in previous years, students will journey through ST Math with Jiji.  5th grade students will be working towards completing the priority cones that match each of our curriculum modules this school year instead of chasing a puzzle count.  These cones will be assigned to your child in ST.  We will use the first few weeks of school to explain this new approach to your child and how they can manage their time to be successful with their final year of ST!
