Money
Unit - Grade 5 - by Sandie Andrews
Throughout
this unit students will be involved in manipulative
hands-on activities. Most activities will be set up
in stations where students rotate at their pace. This
will allow for independent learning as well as group
work and peer teaching. The underlying concept of
all the activities is problem solving. The problems
are developed to challenge students based on abilities,
to motivate based on interest, and to be meaningful
to the students' lives: connecting mathematics to
real life situations. Such an approach of allowing
students to interact with peers and materials and
using their own experiences to learn makes the experience
meaningful, as well as developing a positive attitude
to mathematics and promoting students to become life
long learners
