Greeting Math Students,

Here is the homework for a Monday night:

Math:  JUST page 138 for ALL groups

*Tricky lesson today that I introduced to the kids.  Friday we were working on converting between Mixed Numbers and Improper Fractions, and show how they can be EQUIVALENT (you know...equal).

3 and 1/2 (mixed number) is the same as 7/2 (seven-halves)

Today we started talking about subtracting and adding MIXED numbers and borrowing and carrying with those.  We'll get more practice tomorrow, but they weren't ready to be independent today, so I help back on the homework.  Get ready to ask your kids about it tonight though.
