5th Grade Math Text
The core of our math program will focus on the Macmillan McGraw-Hill text called Math Connects. Each chapter has detailed lessons filled with examples, high level word problems, online activities you may access at home, and a study guide/review section at the end. Your child is expected to bring the book home every night, regardless if homework is from a different resource. 5th grade math is very complex and we understand that many parents have not done these things in a long time! :) Bringing home the book not only gets your child prepared for middle school, but ensures that parents have a resource to turn to refresh their memory. Under "Chapter Resources" you will find details into each chapter and resources/games/study guides to help you and your child successfully master each skill.
