Unit+6,+Investigation+4

Wednesday
//Learning Target: I can figure out how many nickels or dimes there are in a total amount of money.//

Begin with conversation about 100 from Session 3.6 page 125: what ways do we know to represent 100? (base ten blocks, digi blocks, hundreds chart, a dollar, ten dimes, etc.)

Put up a blank hundreds chart and ask: if we were going to fill in the whole hundreds chart, how many numbers would we write down?

What if we were going to only write down every 5th number? I mean, what if we were going to count by fives and fill in only the numbers we say when we count by fives. How many numbers would we write?

Hand out blank hundreds charts for them to use to figure it out if necessary.

Then students solve coin problems. [|Unit6Session4point1a.doc]
