Critical & Creative - Grade 5 - By Evan-Moor The relationship between critical and creative thought can be misunderstood. But in fact, profound thinking requires both imagination and intellectual ideas. To produce excellent thinking, we need to engage our children in a curriculum that overlaps the logical and creative sides. Critical & Creative Thinking Activities' forty-six theme-based units will give your child lots of practice thinking in various ways. From brain teasers and logic puzzles to mazes, Venn diagrams, and secret codes, Critical & Creative Thinking Activities has a wealth of mind-boggling activities that your child will enjoy. Exercises include thinking fluency, originality, generalizing, patterning, and problem-solving. Every lesson is based on grade-appropriate themes and is correlated to state standards. Imagination and reason function best in tandem, and Critical & Creative Thinking Activities delivers just that. Published by a secular company, Critical & Creative Thinking Activities may include a unit or two that might not be appropriate for all families.

101 Doodle Definitions When your child needs to master unfamiliar words, hours of tedious memorization is not the only way. With 101 Doodle Definitions, your student will discover that by drawing a picture to remind him of a word, his brain will more readily remember the word’s meaning. This groundbreaking mnemonic approach to learning and remembering word meanings covers 101 of the most-used words on standardized tests. Using clear and concise definitions and prompts on how to draw a picture that accompanies each word, 101 Doodle Definitions is an amazingly clever book to teach vocabulary to children. But that is only the beginning. Once your child has completed 101 doodles, he will know how to make his own unique doodle for any other unfamiliar word he encounters. 101 Doodle Definitions is fun. The words are hard. The drawing cues are spot on. Features Illustrator: Deborah Zemke Publisher: Blue Apple Books ISBN: 9781609050672 Publication date: 07/12/2011 Pages: 96 Product dimensions: 7.30(w) x 9.40(h) x 0.60(d) Age Range: 10 Years Grade Level: 5th-6th Faith-Based: No review by Oaxacaborn ”Drawing cements the meaning into the memory nearly twice as effectively as writing does, so kids who utilize this method will be left with vocabulary they understand, and remember.” Read the Review review by Cummins Life ”It is easy to use and it doesn't take a ton of time to learn new words. It's also fun.” Read the Review review by So Every Day ”It’s been a lot of fun, a very tiny time commitment, and paying great rewards for such a small burst – and the words are all right there ready for me each week.” Read the Review

Math-U-See Epsilon is typically a good fit for a student entering fifth grade; to find the Math-U-See level that best fits your child you can try the placement test here. Math-U-See Epsilon In previous lessons, students have learned basic operations with whole numbers. Epsilon covers these same operations with fractions. Fractions are presented intuitively with visual explanations of equivalent fractions, common denominators, and fractions and numbers larger than one. Fractions and operations are illustrated using Math-U-See Fraction Overlay manipulatives. About Math-U-See Curriculum For more than 20 years, Math-U-See's renowned mastery-based, multi-sensory, student-paced program has been the answer for countless families. Math-U-See is a comprehensive K-12 math curriculum that uses manipulatives to illustrate and teach the concepts. If you regularly experience tears from your child whenever new mathematical topics are introduced, you need Math-U-See's systematic, precept-upon-precept math program. This manipulative-based curriculum ensures your children will be able to fully understand each mathematical concept before moving on to another one. Math-U-See is mastery-oriented, clear, to the point, and compelling with simple, uncluttered pages. In Math-U-See, new ideas are introduced step by step logically. At the same time, concepts that have been mastered are reviewed periodically. The lessons are short, and there are many opportunities for multi-sensory experiences using videos and manipulatives. Math-U-See books are organized into levels, not grades, so students can proceed at their own pace as they master concepts. This is particularly helpful for the child that is not performing at grade level but would rather not have that be a daily reminder. Student workbooks are softcover, and the pages are perforated and punched so they can be removed, completed, and placed in binders if you choose. Occasional fun exercises, like dot-to-dots and crossword puzzles, have been incorporated into the student workbooks. Student workbook pages are consumable, so each child will need their own copy. Instruction manuals include complete answer keys with solutions for all problems. This is more a necessity at the upper levels than the lower ones. The Math-U-See Manipulatives are more than a supplement. They are an integral part of the curriculum. Used from the Primer through Algebra 1 levels, the manipulatives build each concept from place value through polynomials through Integer Blocks, Fraction Overlays, and Algebra/Decimal Inserts. Math-U-See does require a fair amount of parental involvement, especially in the younger grades. They have bent over backwards to make the lesson planning as painless as possible. But to get the most out of Math-U-See, parents should be prepared to plan and not start the lessons unprepared. Math-U-See's teacher guide and supplemental DVD will teach you, the parent, more than just how to solve a math problem. They also show why the problem is solved in this manner and when to apply the concept. Each lesson is demonstrated on the DVDs with such kind-hearted enthusiasm. I now understand why children line up at homeschool conferences to give the instructor, Steve Demme, a hug. DVDs can be played on a DVD player or computer; however, Windows 10 users will need to download a separate video player. Math-U-See is laid out with step-by-step procedures for introducing, practicing, mastering, and reviewing concepts. How do you know when your child has 'mastered' a math concept? Not just when he gets the answers right but when he can teach the concept back to you, especially if he can do so with a word problem. Math-U-See will show you how. So, if you want to give your child a rock-solid mathematical foundation, if your child is shaky on the basics, or just looking for a no-frills, common-sense program, you will be pleased with Math-U-See. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What Is Taught In The Epsilon Level?Major Concepts and Skills Include: Recognizing and generating equivalent fractions Understanding addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of fractions and mixed numbers Fluently adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions and mixed numbers Additional concepts and skills: Using multiple strategies to recognize common factor Understanding grouping symbols and their effect on order of operations Interpreting and solving word problems Comparing and converting decimal fractions Finding the area and circumference of circles Classifying quadrilaterals Representing fractions and fractional measurements on line plots and number lines Using coordinates to represent ordered relationships --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In What Order Do I Use the Math-U-See Levels?There are seven books for elementary grades which can be used in the following order: Primer, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, and Zeta.

Placement tests for the different levels are available here. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How Do I Choose Which Curriculum Set I Need?Epsilon Universal SetThe Math-U-See Epsilon Universal Set includes everything a new customer needs to be successful with Math-U-See Epsilon. The Instruction Pack, Student Pack, Fraction Overlays, and the Epsilon Digital Pack are conveniently bundled so customers can be certain they have all of the items they need.Epsilon Level Up SetThe Epsilon Level Up Set is geared toward families who already have the required Fraction Overlays. If you are looking for a complete set, minus the required Fraction Overlays this is what you want. In addition to the Instruction Pack and Student Pack, the Epsilon Level Up Set also includes the Epsilon Digital Pack with access to streaming instruction videos, instructional PDFs, and all the other online resources for the Epsilon level in one convenient location.Epsilon Student PackThis is the right choice for families who have more than one student in the Epsilon level and who need a second workbook, or for families who have previously used Epsilon for one student and already own both the Fraction Overlays and the Instruction Pack. The Student Pack includes solely the student workbook and the test booklet; the Digital Pack is not included. You must have the Instruction Pack to utilize Math-U-See effectively.

Mosdos Press Coral Coral’s integrated literature and language arts study for fifth grade includes selections by Cynthia Rylant, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Isaac Asimov, and well-known poets Shel Silverstein and Edna St. Vincent Millay. In the Coral textbook, the curriculum encourages thinking about important themes. There are over 600 pages of prose, poetry, plays, and nonfiction narratives to challenge the mind of the fifth-grade reader. The Coral set consists of the Student Reader, Student Activity Workbook, and two-part Teacher’s Edition. The extra student pack includes only the Student Reader and the Student Activity Workbook. Coral includes: 26 short stories 39 poems 9 nonfiction essays 2 plays A complete novel Brief author biographies About Mosdos Literature Literature cannot be neutral but will clash or harmonize with your family’s values. Mosdos Literature is a complete literature program that does not glamorize evil nor present subject matter that is not age-appropriate. It never portrays a cynical disregard for positive values as normal, but it reinforces the universal ideals of courage, honesty, loyalty, and compassion. Nearly 2 decades ago, Mosdos Press launched a unique literature series that would teach all necessary language arts skills through a curriculum that promotes traditional values. Readings are from both classic and contemporary works that are wholesome and stress caring for others and a concern for the natural world. Student Reader Mosdos Literature begins with the Student Reader, which is beautifully illustrated using many full-color photographs, color drawings, and black-and-white pictures. From the beginning, Mosdos committed to collecting for the Student Readers only the most engaging, morally rich, and intellectually challenging selections of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, drama, the novella, and for the older grades, novels. There is an introduction to every story in the Student Reader and an explanation of some facet of literature. That literary focus can include defining character, theme, internal and external conflicts, setting, climax, foreshadowing, and more. This academic component is developed and illuminated through the stories. Vocabulary words that might be unfamiliar are presented in boxes on the pages where the word first appears in the account. The stories are followed not just by the classic review questions designed to assess reading comprehension but also by more complex questions that require thoughtful analysis. Every unit concludes with activities such as writing a short skit, doing a craft, or memorizing a poem. Pick the ones that best suit your child; there are far too many to do them all. Student Activity Workbook Next is the consumable and engaging Student Activity Workbook that works to expand the value of the Mosdos curriculum. For nearly every story in the Student Reader, the Student Activity Workbook contains corresponding vocabulary, creative writing, or comprehension questions. It also provides extended reinforcement of the literary elements being taught. These assignments help you evaluate areas of progress in your child and concepts that might require additional work. The literature, vocabulary, and writing components all tie together, giving your child a chance to truly understand what was taught by approaching it in various ways. Student Activity Workbooks vary by grade levels. There are more word games and puzzles for vocabulary practice, activities that focus on various language arts skills, and brief composition work for younger grades. In older grades, the puzzles and games gradually decrease while the number of writing assignments increases. Teacher’s Edition Each Teacher’s Edition is detailed and well-organized. The Teacher’s Edition will make lively discussions with your child possible through great commentary plus questions and answers. Homeschooling parents will appreciate that Mosdos Press did not assume any level of expertise or teaching degree when preparing their Teacher Editions. So whether new or experienced, anyone can teach literature. Each page of the Student Reader is duplicated at a smaller size in the Teacher’s Edition, still abundantly easy to read. Information is arranged in the ample margins around these replicated pages, discussing the literary components found in each story with clear, concise explanations. Of course, the Teacher’s Guide also includes the answers for the Student Activity Workbook. This makes teaching a lot easier for every homeschool parent. Mosdos Press is the ideal literature curriculum for any family who wants an excellent academic program that encourages wholesome values without any religious content. The thought-provoking selections are colorful and engaging, and while not religious, they still reflect good principles. Features Download PDF Student Edition Sample.
