I added 3.1 and 4.65 and got an answer of 4.96 What was my mistake?
When adding or subtracting decimals, remember to line up the decimal points. DO NOT align the numbers on the right-hand side, like you would with whole numbers
In a whole number, the decimal point is after the last digit (e.g., 15+4.88 should be written as 15.00+4.88).
When numbers have different numbers of digits after the decimal point, add zeros to make the place values line up correctly. For example, 0.5 can be written as 0.50 to align with 1.25
Sum: the answer to an addition problem
Difference: the answer to a subtraction problem

To find the distance between two positive numbers, we can subtract. If we subtract the same number from both numbers, the distance stays the same (even though both numbers shift to the left).
We can use this flexibility to avoid having to annex lots of zeros and regroup multiple times.
On the blank side, write: First name, last name, U4T1
Use the standard algorithm. Show your work. Circle your answer.
1) 0.231 + 5.8
2) 18 - 0.03
Multiplication: the process of finding the total number of items when you have an equal number of groups (e.g. 2x6 is asking how many items are in two groups of six)
Product: answer to a multiplication problem
Factor(s): numbers that are multiplied
Start 0:52 -Stop 1:55
Steps for multiplying using the standard algorithm:
Line up the digits vertically - starting on the right. (Place the factor with more digits on top.)
* Don't add (annex) zeros to the factors (e.g. don't write a factor of 3 as 3.000)
Multiply the top number by the ones digit of the bottom number, carrying over when necessary.
Multiply the top number by the tens digit of the bottom number, adding a zero as a placeholder in the ones place of the new row.
Add the results to get the final product
After finding the product, move the decimal place to the left -- based on the number of decimal places in the factors
show the 'swoopies' (or bumpies)
If needed, annex one or more zeros in the product (e.g. 0.03 not .03)

A percent is a special ratio that means "per one hundred".
It can be written using the percent symbol (%) and converted into fractions or decimals.
Percents are used to express a part of a whole in a way that makes it easy to compare to other percentages.
We recently surveyed students at FMS about Halloween. These are the number of students who responded by grade level.
These are some graphical representations for the question, how many pieces of candy can you eat in one (1) sitting:
From the displays, you can see that 39 sixth graders graders said they could eat more than 30 pieces and 35 seventh graders said they could eat more than 30 pieces.
39 > 35, so these numbers tell use that more 6th graders said they could eat > 30 pieces of candy in one sitting.
But there is a problem...
One way to find the percent of a number is to change the percent into a decimal and multiply

Devin bought eight packs of Pokémon Cards. If he spent $93.36, how much did each pack cost?
What is the quotient of 2.64 and 6?
What is the product of 0.4 and 5.2?
It is possible to divide by decimals. HOWEVER, it is easier to change divisor to whole number by multiplying both the dividend and the divisor by a factor of 10
e.g. 2.7 ÷ 0.9 ; multiplying both by ten gives you 27 ÷ 9, which is way easier.
Multiplying both the dividend and the divisor by the same factor of 10 does not change the value of the quotient because you are essentially multiplying the entire division problem by 1, which is the multiplicative identity. (This is easier to see if you turn the division problem into a fraction first.)

Why, How, and What
In order to make sense of the world (DI1), students will attend to precision (SMP6), model with mathematics (SMP4), construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others (SMP3) while taking wholes apart, putting parts together (CC3)
Grade Six Content Standards
Solve and model real world problems. Add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit numbers and decimals, in real-world and mathematical problems - with sense making and understanding, using visual models and algorithms. (p34)
NS3. Fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the standard algorithm for each operation.
NS2. Fluently divide multi-digit numbers using the standard algorithm.
RP1. Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. For
example, “The ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2:1, because for every 2 wings there was 1 beak.”
“For every vote candidate A received, candidate C received nearly three votes.”
RP2. Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b ≠ 0, and use rate language in the context of a
ratio relationship. For example, “This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for
each cup of sugar.” “We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.”1
RP3. Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations.
a. Make tables of equivalent ratios relating quantities with whole number measurements, find missing values in the tables, and plot the pairs of values on the coordinate plane. Use tables to compare ratios.
b. Solve unit rate problems including those involving unit pricing and constant speed. For example, if it took 7 hours to mow 4 lawns, then at that rate, how many lawns could be mowed in 35 hours? At what rate were lawns being mowed?
c. Find a percent of a quantity as a rate per 100 (e.g., 30% of a quantity means 30/100 times the quantity); solve problems involving finding the whole, given a part and the percent.
d. Use ratio reasoning to convert measurement units; manipulate and transform units appropriately when multiplying or dividing quantities.

Mr. Shaw dropped by to share a problem he has: A new metal paper holder costs $400-$500. He has one in his room that is made of wood and it works. He wants to know if there are any students who would be willing to work on designing another wooden paper holder.
If you can sketch up the plans, Mr. Olsen is willing to cut the wood and assemble what you create.
This is not a required project, but if it interests you, you are welcome to measure and come up with your own design.
Today were are going to take our first Focused Interim Assessment Block (FIAB): Multidigit Numbers, Factors, and Multiples
