Students practice the precise technique of measuring with rulers, focusing on aligning the object with the zero mark rather than the edge of the tool. They measure line segments and objects to the nearest whole, half, and quarter inch.
A comprehensive slide deck covering measurement in inches (halves and fourths) and interpreting data on line plots, provided in both English and Japanese.
A cumulative review of all standards covered in the 10-day intensive program.
Strategies for solving two-step word problems involving addition, subtraction, and multiplication with unknowns.
Covers finding the perimeter of polygons, including finding unknown side lengths.
Uses partitioning of rectangles to illustrate the distributive property and additive nature of area.
Introduces area through tiling and relates it to multiplication of side lengths.
Focuses on comparing fractions with the same numerator by reasoning about the size of the denominator.
Teaches comparing fractions with the same denominator using area and length models.
Focuses on thirds and sixths using length models (number lines) to find equivalent fractions.
Covers composing and decomposing fractions into equivalent fractions using area models for halves, fourths, and eighths.
