This book has gray-scale interior pagesMath Mammoth Grade 5-B Worktext covers the second half of fifth grade mathematics studies. In part5-A, students have studied the four operations with whole numbers, large numbers, problem solving,decimal arithmetic, and statistical graphs. In this part, 5-B, we study more about decimals, a lot aboutfractions and fraction arithmetic, and geometry.Chapter 6 continues our study of decimals. The focus is on multiplying decimals by decimals,dividing decimals by decimals, and conversions between measuring units.Chapter 7 covers the addition and subtraction of fractions—another topic of focus for 5th grade,besides decimals. The most difficult topic of this chapter is adding and subtracting unlike fractions,which is done by first converting them to equivalent fractions with a common denominator.In chapter 8, we study the multiplication and division of fractions from various angles.Chapter 9 takes us to geometry, starting with a review of angles and polygons. From there, studentswill learn to draw circles, to classify triangles and quadrilaterals, and the concept of volume in thecontext of right rectangular prisms (boxes).Note: This is the 2020 edition.

Some students benefit from spiral review, and that is exactly what Math Mammoth Grade 5 Skills Review Workbook offers! It has been designed to complement the lessons in Math Mammoth Grade 5 complete curriculum, providing spiral review of the concepts in the Grade 5 curriculum.Math Mammoth Grade 5 Skills Review Workbook is divided into chapters, which correspond to the chapters in Math Mammoth Grade 5 curriculum. It is meant to be used during the school year, alongside the main curriculum. Spiral reviewing means that after a particular concept or skill has been studied in the main curriculum, it is then reviewed repeatedly over time in several different worksheets of this book.You can choose exactly when to use the worksheets within the chapter, and how many of them to use. Not all students need all of these worksheets to help them keep their math skills fresh, so please vary the amount of worksheets you assign your student(s) according to their need.Each worksheet is designed to be one page, and includes a variety of exercises in a fun way without becoming too long and tedious. Please see the sample file (PDF) to get a good idea of what the worksheets look like.The problems and exercises in this book are completely new and different from any other Math Mammoth series of books.The answer key is available as a separate book.

Please note: This version has grayscale (black-and-white) interior pages.Math Mammoth Grade 5-A is the student worktext for the first half of 5th grade mathematics studies.The book starts out with a study of whole numbers and their operations. Students review multi-digit-multiplication and learn long division with two-digit divisors. We also review divisibility and prime factorization from fourth grade.In the second chapter, the focus is on large numbers and using a calculator. This is the first time a calculator is introduced in Math Mammoth complete curriculum — thus far, all calculations have been done with mental math or with paper and pencil. I want students to learn to be critical in their use of the calculator and use it with good judgment. Every exercise where calculator use is allowed is marked with a little picture of a calculator.The third chapter is about equations and problem solving. We study simple equations with the help of a balance and bar models. The main goal is to get students used to the concept of an equation and what it means to solve an equation. Students also solve a fair amount of word problem with the help of the visual bar model.The fourth chapter is about decimals and some of the operations with decimals (the rest will be studied in chapter 6, in book 5-B). Fifth grade is the time when students learn all the basic operations with decimals. In this chapter, we focus on place value with decimals, addition and subtraction of decimals, and multiplication and division of decimals by whole numbers. Multiplying decimals by decimals and dividing decimals by decimals is covered in chapter 6.In chapter 5 we study graphing in a coordinate grid, line and bar graphs, and average and mode. Today’s world has become increasingly complex with lots of data presented in the media, so our children need a good grasp of statistical graphs to be able to make sense of all of that information.The rest of the 5th grade topics are covered in the 5-B student worktext.

This book was beyond awesome! What I loved the most was how all the ways of the social media/digital world were tied in. Also, super interesting to read about all the little haunted stories and objects. Makes me want to research some myself. Well done Lisa Miller.
