This unit is all things geometry. Our five learning targets for this unit are. . .
I can draw and identify types of angles (acute, obtuse, right, straight, adjacent, vertical)
I can draw and identify types of triangles (equilateral, isosceles, right, scalene)
I can identify place value in numbers from the billions to the hundredths
I can create and define tessellations
I can classify polygons and identify their properties
I also included the link to a site that has resources for each lesson of our Everyday Math curriculum. I just spent some time playing Banana Hunt (a link from the site), which is a great game for thinking about measures of different angles.

And, below is a link to the Everyday Math For Parents Site. . .this is an abundance of information from suggested resources to videos on algorithms (lattice multiplication, partial quotients division, etc.) to PDFs of the homework pages.

And. . .a few pics of the kiddos using math tools to meet these learning targets:
As always, please let me know if you have questions or concerns about your child's progress in math.
