Meeting#6



Here is what we learned in our sixth meeting 10/30:

General Math concept: Slope - We spent a lot of time going over this, so hopefully you guys are completely clear on this:)

Science: Plants! (We went over a lot of information, so make sure you're reviewing your stuff!)

We did not do numbersense this week.

*** A lot of parents have been asking us for information on upcoming tournaments, so use this link for reference: https://momentumlearning.org/math-contests-calendar/
We will try to keep you updated and send out info on tournaments ***

*** Make sure you're reviewing your tricks! You never know, we might throw you guys a pop-test one day (hint hint) ***

Looking forward to seeing all of you next week!

Meeting#5



Here is what we learned in our fifth meeting 10/24:

Number Sense: Multiplying by 101 trick, Multiplying by 1001 trick, and Multiplying by 15 trick

General Math concept: Slope - We ran a little short on time while explaining this, so when you're doing the homework and extra practice, make sure that you fully understand the material. Use the presentation below and online resources such as Khan Academy. We will go over slope again next class, as it is such an important concept.
