Grade 5 Math
Today I had a blast listening to students in fifth grade during math. In the following pictures, Mrs. Fitzpatrick is showing the differences between and area model and the traditional algorithm when solving a math problem. In the other two pictures, Ms. Lane is having her students share how they used the distributive property to solve problems. The rich math vocabulary used by the students and their reasoning was really great to watch.
