Homework

Vocabulary: Unit 6. Complete the first two pages by Wed. Finish last two pages by Friday.

Weekly Reader: Due Friday

Science: Do not forget to do your Weather Report

Math:

For those of you who are out of town here is an example: If I have 1.2 ÷ 4: This means "If I have 1.2 and I want to divide it into 4 equal groups, how many are in each group."

Next, estimate whether it is bigger or smaller than one. This would be smaller than one since 1.2 broken apart 4 times will be smaller than one.

Now draw a picture: I could build one flat and two longs for my model. Now trade flat for ten longs so that there are 12 longs for your picture. Put them into 4 groups and there will be 3 in longs each group. Since, three longs are in each group you have answered you question. The answer will be .3

Please do the following problems: For each one include.....

1) The question the equation is asking

2) Is it bigger than or smaller than one.

3) A picture using base 10 blocks.

4) Write the equation and your answer.



a) 1.2 ÷6 =

b) .6 ÷ 3 =

c) .16 ÷4=

d) 3.6 ÷6=

e) 2.4 ÷ 3=
