Time Frame: 20 teaching days This unit examines how multiplication and division are related. There is emphasis on modeling problems as well as further developing the idea of the distributive property of multiplication. Additionally, skills that students tend to forget over the summer (as identified by fourth grade teachers) are included in this unit for review. 1. Can students relate multiplication to repeated addition? 2. Can students represent a multiplication problem? 3. Can students show mastery of basic multiplication facts? 4. Can students relate multiplication to skip counting? Guided Questions: 5. Can students find the missing product or factor in a multiplication number sentence? 6. Can students use calculators to solve addition, subtraction, and multiplication sentences? 7. Can students relate division to repeated subtraction? 8. Can students represent and solve a division problem? 9. Can students show mastery of basic division facts? 10. Can students relate multiplication and division? 11. Can students use calculators to solve addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems? 12. Can students apply their knowledge of fact families to solve real life problems? 13. Can students show mastery of multiplication and division facts with the use of algorithms? 14. Can students show mastery of basic multiplication and division facts from 0 through 12? 15. Can students recognize that the division algorithm is performed from left to right, while all others are performed from right to left?

Model, read, and write place value in word, standard, and expanded form for numbers through 9999 (N1) Recall basic facts 0, 1, 2, 5, 9, 10 (including turnarounds) without relying solely on tricks or memory aids Read and write in word (six hundred thirty-two), standard (632), and expanded form (600+30+2) Interpret models made from place value blocks and other concrete or pictorial objects Associate place value words with how many digits in a number Review meaning of our base-10 number system (Our base-10 number system is based upon a simple pattern of tens, where each place is ten times the value of the place to its right. This is known as a ten-to-one place-value relationship.) Meaning of Numbers to 9999 Harcourt: Chapter 2 18, 19;22-29 Project LIFT: #1, #2, #21 Tell how the value of a digit changes because of its position/place in the number (Tell the value of 5 in 659 and 5,836) 2. Read, write, compare, and order whole numbers through 9999 using symbols (i.e., <, =, >, ) and models (N1) (N3) Model, compare, and order numbers through 9,999 Use <, >, =, to compare numbers Both signs can be used at this time Harcourt: Chapter 3 38, 39;42-47 Constructed Response: PA Unit 1 Task A pg.3 PA Unit 7 Task A pg. 57 36
12. Round to the nearest 1000 and identify situations in which such rounding is appropriate (N7) (N9) Round to the nearest 1000 Review that estimation tells about how many or about how much Review rounding to the nearest ten and hundred before moving to the nearest 1000 Harcourt: Chapter 3 50-53 Project LIFT: #3 Review rounding a 3 digit number to the nearest 10 Ensure that students understand fully the process of rounding before introducing them to rules FYI: The Process of Rounding: Use a number line or hundreds chart and locate a particular number. Have the students determine which 2 tens it falls between. Have students find which ten the number is closer to. Explain that this is why the number rounds to that particular ten. After the students show mastery, next repeat the same process to round to the nearest hundred and thousand Include rounding mentally. I have 382 jolly ranchers. About how many jolly ranchers do I have? Focus 8-3 Fractions to Tenths ( 2 days) 3.
