This is the Canadian version, which means the materials use mostly metric units, it is formatted to letter size, and large numbers are formatted with a space (e.g. 214 000). However, keep in mind that the \"Grade 5\" refers to the U.S. grade 5, and corresponds roughly to Canadian school system's year 6. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe main areas of study in Math Mammoth Grade 5-A worktext are \u003cstrong\u003ethe four operations\u003c\/strong\u003e with whole numbers, \u003cstrong\u003eplace value\u003c\/strong\u003e with large numbers and the judicious use of calculator, \u003cstrong\u003eproblem solving\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026amp; simple equations, \u003cstrong\u003edecimal arithmetic\u003c\/strong\u003e (operations with decimals), and graphing. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe year starts out with a study of whole numbers and their operations. Students get to review multi-digit multiplication and learn long division with two-digit divisors. We also review divisibility and factors from fourth grade, and study prime factorization.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 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 mentally 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 to be allowed is marked with a little calculator symbol.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe third chapter is about equations and problem solving. We study simple equations with the help of a balance and bar models. The main idea is to get students used to the idea of an equation and what it means to solve an equation. Students also do a fair amount of problem solving using the visual bar model. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fourth chapter is about decimals and some of the operations with decimals (the rest will be studied in part 5-B). In this chapter, we focus on place value with decimals, addition and subtraction of decimals and multiplication and division of decimals by whole numbers. In chapter 5 we study graphing in the coordinate grid, line graphs, and the concept of average. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlease note this is the student worktext and does not contain the answers.
