In math, we are focusing on understanding place value and number relationships within the base ten system. Students will be learning different strategies for adding and subtracting large whole numbers (to the hundred thousands place). 

In math, we are focusing on understanding place value and number relationships within the base ten system. Students are learning to recognize patterns in real-life situations as they compare, order, and round multi-digit whole numbers up to the hundred-thousands place. We are also practicing how to use symbols like >, <, and = to show comparisons between numbers. You can support your child at home by involving them in everyday number tasks—such as comparing prices while shopping, rounding numbers when estimating totals, or discussing distances and measurements—helping them see how math connects to the world around them.

We will be learning how to read and write multi-digit whole numbers up to the hundred-thousands place using base-ten and expanded form. We'll explore how each digit’s value changes based on its place, including how it's ten times greater or smaller when moved. We'll also practice comparing and ordering large numbers using symbols like >, =, and <.
