2.4 Place Value with a Calculator
The number 56,385 is a large number.
- The digit in the ones place is 5. It is worth 5.
- The digit in the tens place is an 8. It is worth 80.
- The digit in the hundreds place is 3. It is worth 300.
- I could subtract 70. For example... 570 - 70 = 500 Now my tens digit is a 0
- 200+30+30+5 = 265
- 255 + 10 = 265

Hey diddle, diddle, the median is the middle you add and divide for the mean the mode is the one that you see the most and the range is the difference between! YEAH! |

2.6 The Median
Median: The middle value in a set of data when the data is listed in order from smallest to largest.
How to find the median:
1. Gather your data. [2, 6, 6, 8, 7, 4, 2]
2. List all the data from smallest to largest [2, 2, 4, 6, 6, 7, 8]
3. Count from each end to the number in the middle [2, 2, 4, 6, 6, 7, 8] (The median is 6.)
4. If two numbers are in the middle, then the median is the average of the two numbers. Add the two numbers together and divide by 2.

2.7 Addition of Multi-digit Numbers
Ballpark Estimates: A way to check an answers to see whether it makes sense.
Sometimes we make a ballpark estimate in advance or as a final check. One way to estimate an answer is to change the addends (the numbers we are adding) to "close-but-easier" numbers and then add those.
These estimations have no one correct answer. There can be many different correct answers. It depends on how you look at the each number and which number you decide is “close but easier” for you.
For example… 254 + 135
We use the word ballpark because it has certain boundaries for numbers, similar to a real ballpark that has boundaries for the ball. We make a ballpark estimate using the boundaries to come up with a fairly accurate idea of the answer. For example, if we estimated 23 + 49, would it be closer to 70 or 80? Using the ballpark estimate (or boundaries), we would say it's closer to 70; or that 80 would be out of the ballpark.

For example… 254 + 135
- You might find that 255 is a close and easier number so 255 + 135 = 390
- You might see 254 and decides that it is close to 250 and 135 is close to 140 so 250 + 140 = 390
- You might notice that 254 is close to 300 and 135 is close to 100 so 300 + 100 = 400.

partial sum method
An addition algorithm in which separate sums are added for each place value of the numbers and then those sums are added to get a final sum. EDM has taught this since 2nd grade.
|
column Addition method
An addition algorithm in which the addends' digits are first added in each place-value column separately, and then 10-for-1 trades are made until each column has only one digit.

2.8 displaying Data with Graphs
making a line plot graph
A sketch of data in which check marks, Xs, or other symbols above a labeled line show the frequency of each value.
Mr. C measured the height of his 4th graders. Here is the data...
{44, 55, 50, 49, 45, 58, 53, 55, 54, 49, 49, 47, 48, 55, 51, 52, 51, 47, 52, 52, 45, 48, 49, 48, 47, 51, 49} He wanted to get a quick view of what that data looked like, so he made a sketch of the data using a Line Plot graph. |
making a bar graph
A graph with horizontal or vertical bars that represent data.
Mr. C measured the height of his 4th graders. Here is the data...
{44, 55, 50, 49, 45, 58, 53, 55, 54, 49, 49, 47, 48, 55, 51, 52, 51, 47, 52, 52, 45, 48, 49, 48, 47, 51, 49} He wanted to present his data and represent it so that others could look and understand it easily, so he made a bar graph. |
2.9 subtracting of multi-digit numbers
Partial Difference Method
A subtraction algorithm in which separate differences are computed for each place value of the numbers, then added to get a final difference. This method involves negative numbers.
|
Trade First Method
A subtraction algorithm in which all necessary trades between places in the numbers are done before any subtractions are carried out. This lets you concentrate on one thing at a time.
