Introduces the area model for 2-digit by 1-digit multiplication, connecting place value to the distributive property.
A comprehensive lesson on adding and subtracting fractions with like and unlike denominators, focusing on the 'Pizza Chef' method for finding common denominators and the 'Slicing it Down' method for simplifying results.
A cumulative review and performance assessment where students solve 5 oral or pictorial problems to 30, demonstrating mastery of the unit's goals.
Combining skills to determine the correct operation (+/-) for oral and pictorial problems, writing the number sentence, and solving using a number line.
Focusing on subtraction within 30 using number lines and a monster truck theme. Students will practice 'reversing' or 'crushing' numbers by moving backward on the number line.
Focusing on addition within 30 using number lines and a Lego building theme. Students will practice 'building up' their totals by hopping forward on the number line.
