Tonight's Homework

Good afternoon,

Here are some upcoming dates to remember for this month:
Feb. 17- CiCi's Spirit Night
Feb. 20- Interim Reports Go Home
Feb. 27- Dear Edwina Jr and Silent Auction 

Tonight's homework is for students to complete a sheet. They also must create 2 extra problems on their own. 

Example problem:(there is no division sign on the keyboard so I will say "divided be")

 9,000 divided by 3 

1. Underline the basic fact and rewrite the division problem using the basic fact.
9,000 divided by 3
9 divided by 3

2. If they cannot give the correct answer, write the problem as a related fact.
3 x ____=9 
Well 3 times 3 equals 9 so...
9 divided by 3 is 3

3. Go to original problem and solve the underlined basic fact.
9,000 divided by 3 = 3

4. Count the number of zeros not underlined in the problem and add to the quotient.
9,000 divided by 3= 3,000

I hope this helps anyone tonight with homework!
