Multiplication Pyramid

https://www.youtube.com/watch

Students in our class have played Multiplication Pyramid. It's a really fun game that only requires a deck of cards, a piece of paper and a pencil. A calculator also comes in handy at the end of the game to add up all your points. Who will be declared the winner? See the video below for directions. Have fun and thanks for everything you do!

Ms. Girouard :)

Hint: Create your pyramid by starting with your one card at the top. Continue your pyramid until the last row has 7 cards. Let all face cards represent 10 and Ace's represent 1.

Multiplication Fact Flashcards

Can your child answer these facts within 3 seconds or less?! Take out a piece of paper and a pencil and give it a try. Care to make it competitive? Compete with someone in your family. Who will complete the most facts before the time runs out?

Have fun racing against the clock...tick tock!

Grade 5 Math Nov. 1- Nov. 5

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Welcome to our first day/week of home learning. I hope you all had a spooktacular Halloween. I know this isn't quite what we expected but we got this! We are in this together! <3.

Earlier in the year, I sent students home with their login information for Mathletics and Dreambox as resources for Math. This week, your child can practice concepts we have learned by visiting these programs. I recommend for students to practice concepts for a minimum of 20 minutes per day on Dreambox/Mathletics or both! I also encourage students to practice their math fact fluency daily for a minimum of ten minutes. Students can practice their facts by visiting www.multiplication.com. Throughout the week, I will also be posting some fun multiplication games students can play at home.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions at all. I hope we are all back together in person soon!

Sincerely,

Ms. Girouard :)
