UPDATED Nov 15th: Math Homework: Nov.14th to Nov. 17th

**Wednesday note: Well done Sophie, first person to complete the three problems and hand in their work today! Now, try gr 4 problem added today! :-)

Remember to do homework 2 or 3 nights a week for 15 to 20 minutes. Many of you have been doing more, that is great! Well done.

This week, try and solve the following 3 problems. Write your answers on a separate sheet. Try and put in all good information and illustrations that will help you get a level 4. Have fun with it, try and write what you think the answers might be. Then, ask your Mom or Dad to check it over with you.

This problem is a grade 1 level problem: You skip count by a number and you eventually say the number 20. What might you have been counting by? What were you not counting by? How do you know?

This problem is a grade 2 level problem: You have two piles of counters. Altogether you have just a few more than 12 counters. How many counters might there be in each pile?

This problem is a grade 3 level problem: You subtract two three digit numbers, and the number of tens in the answer is greater than the number of hundreds. What numbers might you have subtracted?

This problem is a grade 4 level problem: Create a growing pattern that involves multiplying by 2 and includes the number 80. Can your pattern include the number 2?

If you complete all 4 problems and want a tougher challenge, ask Mr Kennedy for a gr 5 problem!

Bring your answers to class on Friday and we will see what the possible answers might be.
Make it a challenge! Make it FUN! Even if you find it hard, persevere, work through it! :-)
