Happy Family Day weekend!

Math
Please practice your times table. Use a multiplication matrix is you're unsure of some of your multiplication facts. DO NOT USE REPEATED ADDITION. It is too slow.

Note about the adding and subtracting money test:

Make sure you understand the relationship between the total cost of purchases, the change and the amount given.

Change = Amount Given - Total Cost
Total Cost = Amount Given - Change
Amount Given = Total Cost + Change

Let's use an example:


If you bought this Lego set for $89.79, you paid with $100 00 you will receive $10.21 change

$10.21 = $100.00 - $89.79
change = amount given - total cost

$100.00 = $89.79 + $10.21
amount given = total cost + change

$89.79 = $100.00 - $10.21
total cost = amount given - change

As long as you know two of these "variables" (total cost, change or amount given), you can find the third.

Some students still do not fully understand subtraction across zeros using regrouping. Here's a video to help.
