5th Grade Math A

In this problem-based curriculum, students will build on their math skills through exploration. Throughout this course, students will use interactives and virtual manipulatives to explore math concepts. Students continue their study of geometry as they find the volume of right rectangular prisms and solid figures composed of two right rectangular prisms. They will then solve problems that involve the multiplication of a whole number and a fraction, including fractions greater than 1 as well as multiply fractions by fractions and divide a whole number and a unit fraction. Finally, students use the standard algorithm to multiply multi-digit whole numbers. They divide whole numbers up to four-digits by two-digits divisors using strategies based on place value and properties of operations.
