Some of these tasks are games you can play with materials at home, while others are projects or supplemental materials from our Eureka math curriculum. Some of the activities below require a printer or materials you probably have at home, like a deck of playing cards.
Email kvanduzer@ps29bk.org with pictures of you doing any of these activities, and Ms. Van Duzer will post them on this site!

Overview of 5th Grade Math
Fifth grade mathematics is about (1) developing fluency with addition and subtraction of fractions, and developing understanding of the multiplication of fractions and of division of fractions in limited cases; (2) extending division to two-digit divisors, integrating decimal fractions into the place value system and developing understanding of operations with decimals to hundredths, and developing fluency with whole number and decimal operations; and (3) developing understanding of volume.

Templates and Tools
5th Graders use the place value chart as an important tool for thinking about multiplication and division relationships, as well as for solving division problems with whole numbers and decimals. Here are some templates you can print to use at home!
