Parent Information for Multiplying Fractions (Section B- Fractions of Whole Numbers)
Standard: NC.5.NF.4 Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole number by a fraction, including mixed numbers.
● Use area and length models to multiply two fractions, with the denominators 2, 3, 4.
● Explain why multiplying a given number by a fraction greater than 1 results in a product greater than the given number and when multiplying a given number by a fraction less than 1 results in a product smaller than the given number.
● Solve one-step word problems involving multiplication of fractions using models to develop the algorithm.
Upcoming Assignments
** Weekly Work Homework #10 is due on Friday, 10/30 (page 1-2)

Weekly Science Topic: Weather
Standard ESS.5.1.1 Analyze and interpret data to compare daily and seasonal changes in weather conditions (including wind speed and direction, precipitation, and temperature) and patterns.
Students will take their water cycle test on Monday.
We will then move into our weather unit- differentiating between weather and climate and learning about air pressure and atomsopheric conditions.
Weekly Homework
Your child will always have this homework unless other information is shared.
Math & Science Homework: Students are expected to complete a weekly math and science spiral review for homework. They will receive the homework on Monday and must have it completed and ready to turn in by Friday morning. We will check it and discuss difficult problems on Friday. It is their choice of how they want to complete it during the week- all on one night, a little each day, etc.
Please have your child do the best they can on the HW usually this is a review of things they know and the newer content we will cover that week. They should be able to complete the work independently or with minimal guidance. Students are also encouraged to bring their math journals home for help and to ask me questions the next morning if they do not understand.
ELA Homework: Read for 30 minutes each night.
Reading logs will be sent home on 8/31/26.. These logs will be spot checked once per week.
A family representative must sign the log each night.
Nightly reading is meant to prepare students to advertise a book of their choice to their classmates. This project presentation will be held every 7 weeks.
Book projects will consist of three parts. Students may choose within each section. Technology pieces may be chosen but do not have to be.
Parents may support by ensuring their child reads, signing logs, assisting with project materials needed.
