Unit 7: Reviewing & Extending Fractions, Decimals & Multi-Digit Multiplication
PAR-BR4-U7.pdfHome Connections Support and Resources:
*Unit 7 is a REVIEW of concepts already taught. Some concepts are extended. For example, because students have learned all conceptual strategies to solve multi-digit multiplication problems, they will now learn the Standard Algorithm of Multi-Digit Multiplication.
Fraction Review
Below you will find resources to help support Unit 7's review of Fractions.
Home Connection Pages:

Extending Fractions: Comparing Fractions Word Problems
Below you will find resources to help support Unit 7's extension of Fractions.
Home Connection Pages:
263 and 264COMPARING FRACTIONS WORD PROBLEMS (Use this flipped video to support solving comparing fractions word problems)
Comparing Fractions with Different Denominators
Below you will find resources to help support understanding of how to compare fractions with unlike denominators.

The Standard Algorithm of Multi-Digit Multiplication
Below you will find resources to help support understanding of the standard algorithm of multiplication. It is encouraged to use the standard algorithm and a conceptual strategy already taught so students can check their work.
Home Connection Pages:
280, 283, 284, 285, 286, and 288-295MULTI-DIGIT MULTIPLICATION STANDARD ALGORITHM (2 DIGIT BY 1 DIGIT) (Use this flipped video to support using the standard algorithm of multiplication)
2-DIGIT BY 2-DIGIT MULTIPLICATION STANDARD ALGORITHM (Use this flipped video to support using the standard algorithm of multiplication)
Choosing a Multi-Digit Multiplication Strategy
Now that students have learned ALL strategies to solve multi-digit multiplication equations, students need to evaluate a problem and decide which strategy is best to use.

Games for Extra Practice:
If you are new to the array model, or want to help your child review at home, consider watching this demonstration. Using the fast forward button (>>), skip ahead to Session 4, "Multiplication of Whole Numbers: Using a Multiplication Array", to see 26 x 13 modeled on an array.
Your child can arrange numbers from least to greatest on a number line. Work quickly and accurately to better your score. Choose from fractions, fractions & decimals, and fractions/decimals/percents.
Your child can practice comparing fractions with like and unlike denominators using a strategy of their choice.
