Lesson 2-1

This is Wednesday's Flipped Lesson. You will be learning how to Multiply and divide by 6. So start practicing your 6 Times Tables. A great place to start is the Math Songs that can be found here: http://fisherflip.blogspot.com/p/songs.html. there are 10 problems to do tonight. One of those problems is to find something that comes in 6.



And the video references some videos, here are some links to them on the internet:
And for those that need to have a hard copy of the homework: Lesson 2.1 on 6 x's Tables

Lesson 19

Reinforce the Common Core Standards and Mathematical Practices with a variety of real world problem-solving situations. Although today's lesson is all about an activity that we will be doing on Friday, we really are preparing for the Chapter Test. We will be taking a couple more Quick Quizzes this week to see if we are ready. So keep practicing those times tables.
The Worksheet will go right here. <Later>

Lesson 17

Here is today's lesson on playing multiplication and division games, but there are still some problems you will need to do. Remember today's lesson is not due until Wednesday when you need to be ready to discuss and share what you have learned with your classmates. The worksheet will be posted later this afternoon.

Lesson 14

Building Fluency with 2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, 9s, and 10s



This is exciting creating these videos and sharing them. With each video lesson I find I make mistakes, and I learn how to teach something better and in a different way to help you learn better. Monday I learned that I need to have the worksheet ready before I start, and during Tomorrow's class discussion I will find out which students still need some clarification. It's like a magician, every time I pull something out of the hat it comes with new things to fix. I love the feedback!

This is Lesson 12, which will be taught on Wednesday of this week. Remember to get out your Green Notebook so you can write down the answers. There are 15 Questions on the homework. I can't promise a time, but I am working on There is a worksheet that will be posted  is right underneath this video, so you can check and see if you have written all of the answers in your notebook. Good Luck and remember you really should be practicing your 3's, 4s, 0s and 1s this week, and reviewing your 2s, 5s, 10s, and 9s from last week.

Lesson 7

Now this is going to take all of our efforts to remember that this video will be Wednesday's work. As I was planning this out I realized that I am planning for a lesson 3 days from when I created it. It will take some getting used to, and some planning on my part. Today's lesson will be in two parts, mainly because I saw a concept needed to be reviewed. So when you get off the bus today after school, you can start watching this first video that reviews how to divide.

Here is the process one more time:
  1. Have your notebook ready to write down 5-10 problems.
  2. Watch the video. Today it is about 10 minutes and the second one will be about 8 (14) minutes. (I plan to shorten them, with continued practice). 
  3. Pause the video to write down your answers.
  4. Then be ready to discuss your answers with your group on Wednesday.

Who said you were done? You should still be studying, practicing your multiplication times tables, or reading a book (20 Minutes - Note coming home tomorrow). Total time spent should be between 30 - 45 minutes total.

Part Two:

Lesson 2.5

After getting a really good lesson prepared and recorded, I just barely went to upload this video and found out there was no audio. So for those that are able to get to this point with me. This assignment will be ready for tomorrow, but not tonight. For those that still won't be able to get online, well you and I have one more day to catch up. For those that are worried about not having homework (Mr. Fisher the teacher is horrified "I need to give homework!") Tomorrow you will be given some tools to help you practice Multiplication and Division on a daily basis. Also coming up shortly you will have a homework folder to keep track of your reading, and of course your math practice. The Green Notebook is where you will write your assignments

For those that need some homework - practice the 2's Times Tables:

May the Force Be with Us tomorrow!

Yeah, Third Times a Charm! It works!
