This download is two items in one! It's perfect for your 4th Grade or 5th Grade math unit on adding and subtracting decimals to the thousandths. 1) The easy-to-use assessment/quiz requires students to estimate before calculating addition and subtraction of decimals to the thousandths. It’s quick and simple to mark out of 20 using the included answer key! I use this piece as a simple artifact to include in my students' math portfolios and to show parents during conferences. 2) The project allows students to plan a 5-day road trip including: o Calculating how much gas they need and how much it will cost (using metric: litres and km). o Finding hotels and calculating the total price per night including taxes. o Finding attractions to visit on the way. o Determining how much to spend on food on the 5-day trip. Grades to Use With: This product is designed for students in Grades 4 and 5 who are learning about decimal operations. It meets standards in both the USA and British Columbia, Canada for Grade 5 students. It could also be used as a review in Grade 6 classes or in middle school special education classrooms. How to Use: 1) I use the assessment at the end of a unit when students are comfortable with lining up decimals to add and subtract. There are some tricky questions where students need to add zeros after the last digit of a number. 2) I use the project over a couple of independent work periods. Students will need access to the internet to research distances, hotels, and attractions. You could also assess the project to see your students' comprehension. What's Included: 6 Page PDF Title Page Decimal Quiz Answer Key 3 Page Road Trip Project with tables and prompts If you enjoy this upper elementary math product, please check many others in my store!

Phonic Readers, Matching Worksheets and PowerPoint Pack 2: OO
Special Resources, ELA, Special Education Needs (SEN), Language Development, Phonics, Reading, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, Literacy Readers, Teacher Tools
A pack of two, OO, decodable readers, 48 supporting worksheets and a matching PowerPoint This is the second pack of Jack Stories in our Phonic Reading Scheme for older Pupils. It is suitable for those with poor phonemic awareness/poor processing skills, be that due to autism, dyslexia or any other need. The whole series to date can also be purchased as a growing bundle here, with a scope and sequence. These books should be read in series as they are incremental. Typical signs that this programme can help: · Difficulty recalling words when seen on flashcards or when reading texts, which results in no or little reading fluency · b/d letter reversal of a chronic nature – i.e. the child has not grown out of it · Difficulty ordering letters in words: E.g. top becomes pot. · Difficulty differentiating between like words: spoon/soon; back/black; sheep/sleep etc… · Difficulty tracking words across a page Objectives: To help children to develop a core set of decodable words, that they have seen enough times so that they no longer have to sound them out but can recognise them easily and recall them when needed. One of the biggest problems for struggling readers is that often, phonic reading books do not give the child a chance to see the same words again and again and so some children are forced to sound out nearly every word, which slows their speed of reading right down and means that they often cannot understand what they have read. Order, outlined and steps: The Reading Made Simple Reading and Spelling programme for struggling readers focuses the child's attention on around ten words containing the same phonic sound, at a time. For struggling readers, these lists are subdivided into two sets of 5 and the lesson is spread over 2 weeks. During these two weeks, the words are practised in various ways: On flashcards provided Sentence building with the flashcards Speed reading of just the ten words Sentence writing activities Fluency charts Games Reading books which only contain the words that have been introduced. The reading books should be used as a form of assessment and any words that the child needs to sound out can be practised further, while you move on to the next sound. Multisensory: Children who struggle to learn to read often need a multisensory approach. This phonic reading scheme uses the power of the hand to provide the multisensory dimension so often lacking in many 'learn to read' programmes. The child not only sounds out the words to read but also to write. The words are then put into sentences to read and write, building up as we go into a longer text Confidence building Because we are working with a discrete set of words, with the same sound, the child soon learns to recognise the words in each lesson, having sounded them out, read them, and written them many times in many fun ways. As the child reads each book, you can watch as s/he finally begins to say, 'I can do this!' as s/he meets familiar words. Directions Full teaching notes are provided. What is included? 2 reading books PDF - both 16 pages X A5 1 PDF of 48 supporting activities One 16-slide PowerPoint
