Fifth Grade Rocks!!

I hope you are having fantastic summer. However, you can still get ahead by studying some gold old classic math.

For example, you can study the 16 basic multiplication facts! You should know all of your 0s,1s, 2s, 5s, 10s, and doubles (like 8X8=64...6X6=36). When you read "know" that means like instantly, just like that. So, you can study the facts that are not in the list as well if you need to.

So, 16 Facts To Practice Right Now:

9x8

9x7

9x6

9x4

9x3

8x7

8x6

8x4

8x3

7x6

7x4

7x3

6x4

6x3

4x3 Make flash cards. Mix them up. Become a multiplying maniac!

Fractions and their equivalent percent! REEEEEAAAAAAALLLLLLYYYYY Important!

1/6 = 16 2/3 %

1/5 = 20%

1/4 = 25%

1/3 = 33 1/3 %
