GoMath Chapter 3

Our class, during the next few weeks, will be learning to multiply by 2-digit whole numbers.  We will also learn how to describe the reasonableness of an estimate.
The homework will provide practice with estimation and multiplication of numbers with more than 1 digit. There are seven sections in this chapter.

Important Chapter Vocabulary:
1.  Compatible Numbers;  Numbers that are easy to compute with mentally.
2.  Associative Property of Multiplication;  The property that states that when the grouping of factors is changed, the product remains the same.
3.  Commutative Property of Multiplication;  The property that states when the order of two factors is changed, the product remains the same.
4.  Estimate;  To find an answer that is close to the exact amount.
5.  Partial Product;  A method of multiplying in which the ones, tens, hundreds, and so on are multiplied separately and then the products are added together.
6.  Product;  The answer in a multiplication problem.
7.  Regroup;  To exchange amounts of equal value to rename a number.
