Are you ready?

One of the most important events we have this week is our multiplication indicator quiz.  Why is this so important?  Multiplication is the foundation for most of the math that we will work on the rest of the year.  We'll talk about multiplying as we learn to divide.  We'll use multiplying and dividing when working with fractions.  Finding the area of shapes requires us to multiply.  You can be ready by practicing your facts using flashcards or the math sites on this blog.

This week, Miss Ellis will take over the teaching of writing.  She will continue to work on writing personal narratives with the students.  She has already been teaching math and word study.  Last week, she also began reading the book The Lemonade Wars.  She is doing a wonderful job of presenting the content and relating to the students.

Remember that Thursday is Picture Day. You will have your picture taken even if you do not plan on buying any of the packages, so be ready.
