Math Level D

In Level D, students learn 2-digit by 2-digit multiplication before studying long division. At the end of the level, students study fractions: first learning to convert improper fractions into mixed numbers and vice versa, and then learning to reduce fractions.

● Level D Goals:

• Review of levels A & B addition and subtraction

• Review of level C multiplication and division

• 2-digit X 2-digit multiplication

• 3-digit X 3-digit multiplication

• Long division, show all work

• Introduce fractions

• Converting Improper fractions to proper fractions or mixed numbers

• Converting mixed number fractions to improper fractions

• Reduce fractions in one step using Greatest Common Factor

● Good Work Skills in this level include:

• Reading directions carefully for hints on how to solve the problems

• Using patterns to help answer problems

• Lining long division problems up neatly and correctly

• Using the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) to reduce fractions in ONE STEP

• The ability to correct easily and independently (don’t forget to grade every day!)

• Studying incorrect answers and erase only the part that is incorrect, then correct it

● Quick Tips:

• This is a VERY challenging level! Be encouraging and patient!

• Make sure your child attends class as much as possible

● Time Goal:

• 3-5 minutes per page

• The study time goal is 20-30 minutes per day.

• Your Instructor will continually adjust the number of pages your child is studying to adhere to this goal

● Grading Reminders:

• Students must be able to learn from their mistakes daily

• Take the time to grade and let them find and correct their own errors independently

• Students can use what they have learned and apply it to the next day’s assignment allowing them to move smoothly and independently through the assignments.
