-By 5: 0,5

-By 10: 0

*Sum of Digits

Make sure students understand the problem by having them explain the problem in their own words or show how to complete it.

Make sure students:

4.) Look back reasonably

Week Two:

Numeration Systems

-Base-10 System

-The Value of the number depends on the place

-The numbers get bigger by 10 times (1/10) x (1/10)= (1/100)

Numbers to the right of the decimal are part of the unit

When teaching make sure students

1.) Understand

2.) Plan

3.) Implement

Look back to check if results are reasonable

Polya's four steps to problem solving

1.) Understand the problem

2.) Devise a plan

Ask youeself what problem solving strategy are you going to use?

Guess and use check/trial and error

Draw a picture or a diagram

Act it out

Make the problem simpler

Look for the pattern

Work backwards

Make an organized list

3.) Carry out the plan

Look back (reflect)
