3. Reading - Write an Advertisement
A writer's hard work is for nothing if no one
reads his or her words.
To get reader's interested in reading, writers
write strong openings.
Often, these openings cause readers to ask
questions that can be answered only by continuing
to read.

6. Math - Repeated Addition
Multiplication is a fast way of adding a series
of numbers.
3 x 5 means to add 3 together 5 times or
3+3+3+3+3
7. Math - Commutative Property of Multiplication
The commutative property of multiplication
simply means it does not matter which
number is first when you write the problem.
8. Math - Zeros
Multiplication is repeated addition so:
0x3=0+0+0= 0
Any number times zero is always zero!
9. Math - Ones
Multiplication is repeated addition so:
1x4=1+1+1+1= 4
Any number times one is always itself!
10. Math - Twos
Multiplication is repeated addition so:
2x4=4+4=8
Any number times two is the number doubled!
2 x 4 would be 4 + 4 or 8
2 x 6 would be 6 + 6 or 12
11. Math - Fives
If you are multiplying five times an even number, take half of
the number and put a zero after it
For example 5 x 6 (6 is even)
• take half of 6 (30)
• add a zero - 40
If you are multiplying five times an odd number, subtract 1
from the number and halve the number
For example 5 x 7 (7 is odd)
• Subtract one from 7 (6)
• take half of 6 (3)
• Add a five - 35
12. Math - Nines
This is the one less = nine method
Subtract one from the number you are multiplying by.
• 9 x 5 (one less than 5 is 4)
The two numbers that make up the answer will equal 9.
• The last number in the answer is 5
• 4+5=9
Here is another example
• 9x8
• One less than 8 is 7. So the first number in the answer is 7
• 7+2=9
• So the second number in the answer is 2.
13. Math - Multiply Whole Numbers by Decimals (page 70)
Find 9 x 0.7
Step 1: Multiply as with whole 0.7
numbers.
x 9
Step 2: Count the total number
of digits after the decimal point
in each factor.
0.7 digits
Step 3: Add the digits. Count in
x 9 digits
that many places from the right
in the product. Th

15. Math - Multiply Whole Numbers by Decimals (page 70)
You can use patterns to multiply
1 x 12.5 = 12.5
decimals by multiples of 10.
10 x 12.5 = 125
100 x 12.5 = 1,250
Think: the number of zeros in
1,000 x 12.5 = 12,500
the multiple of 10 tells you how
many places to move the decimal
point to the right.
So 12.5 x 1,000 equals 12,500.
