Teaching Mental Computation Strategies
The development of mental math skills in the classroom should go beyond drill and practice by providing exercises that are meaningful in a mathematical sense. All of the strategies presented in this guide emphasize learning based on an understanding of the underlying logic of mathematics. 1. Represent and describe whole numbers to 10 000, pictorially and symbolically.

Math is divided into Major Units of study
Patterns and Equations This unit will be the first we study in grade 5. During this unit, you will become able to demonstrate: pattern rules, how each element in a pattern differs from the previous one, why a number is or is not the next element, predict the next term, use a variable to describe a pattern, and use a variable to write an equation.
Multiplying and Dividing Whole Numbers In grade 4 you were introduced to multiplication and division, and in grade 5 we will keep building on these basic skills by learning how to: multiply 2 digits by 2 digit number and solve long division equations with 1 digit divisors and 3 digit dividends.
Whole Numbers Whole numbers are the second unit we will work with this year. By the end of this unit, you will be able to demonstrate: the meaning of each number in a given numeral, estimation strategies, and compatible numbers.
Measurement In the measurement unit, much like the other units, skills from grade 4 and earlier will be built upon. This unit will prepare you with the skills to demonstrate relationships among perimeter, shape, and area, estimate volume and capacity, and know-how to work with various units of length.
Fractions and Decimals Fractions and decimals are another unit that builds off what was learned in grade 4. In grade 5 we will go through describing and understanding: sets of equivalent fractions, comparison of fractions with like and unlike denominators, decimals to the tenths, hundredths, and thousandths, relationships between fractions and decimals, comparing and ordering decimals, predicting sums and differences of decimals.
Geometry, Geometry involves two different levels of understanding; the first is conceptual understanding and the second is procedural understanding. For Conceptual understanding, we will be going over how to explain and estimate: edges, faces, sides, and line segments that are parallel, intersecting, vertical and horizontal. We also will learn about the attributes of quadrilaterals.
Next, for procedural understanding, students will demonstrate their ability to: identify and draw parallel, intersecting, perpendicular, vertical, horizontal edges, faces, sides, and line segments. Also, it is important to be able to identify and sort rectangles, squares, trapezoids, parallelograms, and rhombuses.
Statistics and Probability Statistics and probability involve the following outcomes: understanding by explaining and demonstrating the difference between first-hand and second-hand data, drawing conclusions that can be made from a bar graph, figuring out the likelihood of a given outcome, and determining the relative likelihood of two outcomes. We will also spend a lot of time on accurately interpreting bar graphs as well as constructing double bar graphs including labels and legends. Extended thinking is also required in this unit whereby students will be asked to design and conduct probability experiments to demonstrate and investigate the likelihood of outcomes.
