Building Shapes

Family Note
In today’s lesson, your child used straws and twist ties to make polygons with certain attributes. Children also played the game I Spy in which the Spy names defining attributes of a shape he or she sees and the other children guess the shape.

Question 1.
Play at least 4 rounds of I Spy with someone at home. Be sure to use defining attributes. List the clues and shape below for one round.
Answer:
[Answer may Vary]
Circle, Rectangle, Square, Triangle , Polygon etc..
Explanation:
Pick any household object, such as a toy, utensil, or stuffed animal whose name the child has learned. Place the object down in front of the child on the mat, floor, or tray.
In this version of the game, the object isn’t to get the child to guess what object you’ve chosen, but rather to encourage the child to come up with the name of the object you’ve put down.

Answer:
23 < 32
18 = 18
65 > 43
Explanation:
23 < 32
As 23 is lesser than 32 we have  written < symbol in the box
Thus, 23 < 32
18 = 18
Given,
13 + 5 Everyday Mathematics Grade 1 Home Link 8.1 Answers 118
Adding 5 to 13 we get 18
Thus,
18 = 18
65 > 43
As 65 is greater than 43 we have written > symbol in the box.
Thus,
65 > 43

Fourths

Family Note
In the previous lesson, children divided objects into 2 equal shares. Today they divided circles and rectangles into 4 equal shares and discussed names for these shares. They also compared the sizes of the shares. They learned that larger wholes lead to larger shares, so half of a large pizza is larger than half of a small pizza. They also learned that having more shares means that each share will be smaller. So a pizza divided into 6 shares has larger shares than the same pizza divided into 8 shares.

Composing Shapes and Fact Strategies

Family Note
Today children explored composing larger shapes from smaller shapes. They also sorted Fact Triangles based on the strategy they could use to solve the facts. Two strategies were emphasized: near doubles and making 10. There is no rule for when to use a certain strategy; your child should use what works best for him or her.

Question 1.
How can you solve 6 + 7 using the near-doubles strategy?
Answer:
6 + 7 = 13
Explanation:
By adding 6 to 7 we get 13
In near-doubles strategy we double the small number and add the rest of the number to it
First divide the big number into the smaller number and its addend like below:
Everyday Mathematics 1st Grade Answer Key Unit 8 Geometry
Now add the first number to 6:
6 + 6 = 12
Again we have doubled the number add the other number to it:
12 + 1 = 13
Therefore we get 6 + 7 = 13 using near-double strategy.

Question 2.
How can you solve 6 + 7 using the making-10 strategy?
Answer:
6 + 7 = 13
Explanation:
By adding 6 to 7 we get 13
Using – 10 strategy
The number 6 needs 4 to make it into 10 so we divided 7 into 4 and 3
Everyday Mathematics 1st Grade Answer Key Unit 8 Geometry
Then first add 4 to 6 to make it 10
6 + 4 = 10
Again add the other number 3 to 10
10 + 3 = 13
We get 13 [ 6 + 7 = 13]

Question 3.
Which strategy is easier for you? Explain.
Answer:
Near-double strategy is easy for me.
Explanation:
As in Near-double strategy we can easily double the number and add the addend to it whereas in making-10 strategy we have to calculate and divide the number to make the smaller number into 10.

Number-Grid Puzzles

Family Note
Ask your child to show you how to complete the number-grid puzzles below. Encourage him or her to explain number-grid patterns that are helpful for solving the problems. For example, if you move up one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 less.

Show someone at home how to fill in the missing numbers.
Question 1.
Everyday Math Grade 1 Home Link 8.10 Answer Key 1
Answer:
Everyday Math Grade 1 Home Link 8.10 Answer Key 1
Explanation:
If you move up one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 less.
If you move down one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 increases.
So,
If you move 53 up one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 less.
(5-1)tens+3digits=43
If you move 53 down one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 increases.
(5+1)tens+3digits=63
Likewise
(6+1)tens+3digits=73
(7+1)tens+3digits=83
Question 2..
Everyday Math Grade 1 Home Link 8.10 Answer Key 2
Answer:
Everyday Math Grade 1 Home Link 8.10 Answer Key 2
Explanation:
If you move right one row, the digit in the units place is 1 increases.
If you move down one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 increases.
So,
If you move 23 right one row, the units place is 1 increases.
2tens+(3+1)digits=24
Likewise
2tens+(4+1)digits=25
If you move 23 down one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 increases.
(2+1)tens+3digits=33
If you move 43 down one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 increases.
(4+1)tens+3digits=53
Likewise
(5+1)tens+3digits=63
(6+1)tens+3digits=73
6tens+(3+1)digits=64

Question 3.
Everyday Math Grade 1 Home Link 8.10 Answer Key 3
Answer:
Everyday Math Grade 1 Home Link 8.10 Answer Key 3

Explanation:
If you move up one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 less.
If you move right one row, the digit in the units place is 1 increases.
If you move left one row, the digit in the units place is 1 less.
If you move down one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 increases.
So,
If you move 79 right one row, the units place is 1 increases.
7tens+(9+1)digits=80
Likewise
8tens+(9+1)digits=90
If you move 79 left one row, the units place is 1 less.
7tens+(9-1)digits=78
Likewise
8tens+(9-1)digits=88
If you move 79 up one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 less.
(7-1)tens+9digits=69
Likewise
(6-1)tens+9digits=59
If you move 79 down one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 increases.
(7+1)tens+9digits=80

Question 4.
Everyday Math Grade 1 Home Link 8.10 Answer Key 4
Answer:
Everyday Math Grade 1 Home Link 8.10 Answer Key 4

Explanation:
If you move up one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 less.
If you move right one row, the digit in the units place is 1 increases.
If you move left one row, the digit in the units place is 1 less.
If you move down one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 increases.
So,
If you move 14 right one row, the units place is 1 increases.
1tens+(4+1)digits=15
If you move 14 down one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 increases.
(1+1)tens+4digits=24

Question 5.

If you move right one row, the digit in the units place is 1 increases.
If you move left one row, the digit in the units place is 1 less.
If you move down one row, the digit in the tens place is 1 increases.
So,
If you move 57 right one row, the units place is 1 increases.

Mentally Finding 10 More and 10 Less

Family Note
In earlier lessons, children used classroom tools, such as a number grid, base-10 blocks, and dimes, to help them add and subtract 10 from a given number. Today they made calculations mentally, using only their brains. Work with your child on adding and subtracting 10 mentally. Have your child do the routine below several times.

Ask someone at home to say any number between 10 and 99. Record the number and fill in the blanks after it two times below.
Question 1.
Number: _________
There are _________ tens and _________ ones in _________.
10 more than _________ is _________. 10 less than _________ is _________.
Answer:
Number: 55
There are tens and ones in 55.
10 more than 45 is 55. 10 less than 65 is 55.
Explanation:
For Example if we take a number “55”.
In 55 we have five tens and 5 ones.
By adding 45 to 10 we get 55.
By subtracting 10 from 65 we get 55.

Question 2.
Number: _________
There are _________ tens and _________ ones in _________.
10 more than _________ is _________. 10 less than _________ is _________.
Answer:
Number: 35
There are 3 tens and ones in 35.
10 more than 25 is 35. 10 less than 4is 35.
Explanation:
For Example if we take a number “35”.
In 35 we have five tens and 5 ones.
By adding 25 to 10 we get 35.
By subtracting 10 from 45 we get 35.
