MATH
· We finish Chapter 11: Fractions - Test on Wednesday, July 8, 2009*Homework: completing any class work not finished during class (both sides)
Please check over your child’s math class work each evening. By doing this you will have a better understanding of whether your child is grasping the concepts being taught.
· Continue to work on memorizing all multiplication facts 0-10 (I will give multiplication facts pop quizzes on a random basis.)
A great website for working on math facts is: http://www.asd4.org/schools/fullerton/curriculum/mathsites.pdf
This is a great way for your child to practice their math facts.
WRITING
Students will continue to work on writing grade level papers. We will review the 4 paragraph structure this week and start a new prompt about nutrition and the food groups. We will also be peer editing in class this week. I feel the more input they have as a class the more they learn from each other.
