I CHECK READING LOGS EVERY MONDAY.

*I will be giving a short vocabulary quiz once a week.  Vocabulary words will be written on index cards along with the definition and kept in the homework pocket in your child's binder.

MATH

·   begin chapter 7 Measurement

  •  Homework:  completing any class work not finished during class time (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.mhschool.com/math/2003student/factdash/popup.html). This is a great way for your child to practice their math facts.
