Subject Area

Mathematics

Grade(s)

4, 5

Overview

In this lesson, students will calculate savings for different products when using coupons. They will also decide what factors will influence the choices they make when choosing products. Students will practice adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing monetary amounts using decimals to the hundredths place.

    Vocabulary

    • Operations
    • Distance
    • Intervals of time
    • Liquid volume
    • Mass
    • Number line diagram
    • Measurement scale

    Knowledge

    Students know:
    • Relative sizes of units within one system of measurement.
    • Strategies to solve word problems involving the four operations.
    • Measurement units in the same system are multiplicatively related.

    Skills

    Students are able to:
    • Solve measurement word problems
    • Involving distance, intervals of time, liquid volume, mass, and money.
    • Involving measurement conversion of larger units to a smaller unit.
    • Involving simple fractions or decimals.
    • Using diagrams to represent measurement quantities and solutions.

    Note: Quantities and operations are limited to grade 4 standard expectations.

    Understanding

    Students understand that:
    • Relationships among units within a system of measurement are multiplicative comparisons.
    • The size of the unit of measurement and the number of units are inversely related.
    • Addition and subtraction of measurements require measurements in the same unit and that the common unit is maintained in the answer.

    Vocabulary

    • Decimal
    • Tenths
    • Hundredths
    • Place value

    Knowledge

    Students know:
    • Strategies based on place value understanding, properties, and relationship between operations to find the sum, difference, product, and quotient of whole numbers.
    • How to write decimal notation for fractions with denominators of 10 or 100.
    • Use estimation strategies to assess reasonableness of answers.

    Skills

    Students are able to:
    • Use concrete models, drawings, and strategies to add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals.
    • Relate strategies for operations with decimals to a written method and explain reasoning used.
    • Solve real-world context problems involving decimals.

    Understanding

    Students understand that:
    Problems involving operations with decimals
    • Can be solved using a variety of strategies based on place value, properties of operations, or the relationship between the operations.
    • Can be illustrated using concrete models or drawings.
