double-digit addition problems (place value, empty number line, break apart). Ask student, “Do you think we could use some of these same strategies to find the sum of three-digit numbers?” “Today, we are going to use those same strategies to solve three-digit addition problems.” 2. Objective/EQ: During math today, we are going to play a game that includes adding two three-digit numbers using the place value strategy (includes base ten blocks), the empty number line strategy, or the break apart…
Find out the numbers that has the greatest value a) 5.3 b) 4.99 c) 5.198 d) 5.04896 Children should have the ability to compare, order ad represent decimals (11, ACMNA105). The correct answer for the above question is 5.3. Some of the misconceptions could be: some students may choose 4.99, with the misconception that 99 is the highest number, without considering the whole number, in which 4 is less than 5. Students may rule out 4.99, compare the other three numbers, and choose 5…
the previous one Anurupyena Sutra is a specific method of division in Vedic Mathematics which shows how to divide numbers when Nikhilam and Paravartya are not applicable. Specific Condition Required: _ As we know the meaning of Anurupyena (as proportion/ratio), we multiply/divide by factor to make divisor closer to larger number (To apply Nikhilam) OR to make closer to smaller number (To apply Paravartya). _ Later we multiply/divide QUOTIENT with same factor. NOTE: Its always good to use factors…

His passion for numbers were developed while he was a child and was probably due to his father’s career as a Pisan merchant (Hom, 2013). His travels were extensive to his father’s trade and during his life time mathematics was extremely important (Hom, 203).
