Math Mammoth Grade 5-A Worktext is the student book the first half of Grade 5.
This means it concentrates.
It explains the WHY, so your children can understand the math, not just learn HOW to do it.
The curriculum is mastery-oriented.
FeaturesMath Mammoth focuses on conceptual understanding.
Today\'s world has become increasingly complex with lots of data presented in the media, so our children need a good grasp of statistical graphs to be able to make sense of all of that information.
In chapter 5, we study graphing in the coordinate grid, line graphs, and average.
Multiplying decimals by decimals and dividing decimals by decimals is covered in chapter 6.
In this chapter, we focus on place value with decimals, addition and subtraction of decimals, and multiplication and division of decimals by whole numbers.
Fifth Grade is the time when students learn all the basic operations with decimals.
The fourth chapter is about decimals and some of the operations with decimals (the rest will be studied in chapter 6).
Students also do a fair amount of problem solving using the visual bar model.
The main idea is to get students used to the idea of an equation and what it means to solve an equation.
We study simple equations with the help of a balance and bar models.
The third chapter is about equations and problem solving.
Every exercise where calculator use is to be allowed is marked with a little calculator symbol.
I want students to learn to be critical in their use of the calculator and use it with good judgment.
This is the first time a calculator is introduced in Math Mammoth complete curriculum-thus far, all calculations have been done mentally, or with paper and pencil.
In the second chapter, the focus is on large numbers and using a calculator.
We also review divisibility and factors from fourth grade, and study prime factorization.
Students get to review multi-digit multiplication and learn long division with two-digit divisors.
The main areas of study in the Grade 5-A Worktext are: the four operations with whole numbersplace value with large numbers and the judicious use of calculatorproblem solving & simple equationsdecimal arithmeticgraphing and the coordinate grid The year starts out with a study of whole numbers and their operations.
This is the 2023 edition.
This student Worktext contains both the necessary instruction and the problems & exercises (the \'text\' & and the \'work\'; thus a worktext), and is fairly self-teaching.
