It has been a short but busy week in fourth grade! Students have been working hard on a real-life inspired math project. They have been using long division to solve problems inspired by the idea of owning their own movie theater. For example, yesterday students needed to use long division to determine how to evenly divide $12,150 between 135 employees for a yearly bonus. We have been working as a whole group and in partners. At the beginning of this project we set up some guidelines for working with partners. Our first and most important guideline it to maintain positive communication between partners. If students continue to follow these guidelines then they will be rewarded once this project is completed!
I hope you all have a very Happy Thanksgiving! ~ Mrs. D
