Homework this Week: April 18-23

Good afternoon. My apologies, I did not post this as I had mentioned to students yesterday. This week, Math homework is simple. Do 1 or 2 Math minutes each night. Two sheets of Math Minute were handed out today (for a total of 4 pages). Do it on the weekend as well please. It only takes 5 minutes! Ask you son/daughter to show you how it works. Be sure to time 90 seconds. As opposed to the regular 1 minute suggested, we've been doing it for 90 seconds each time instead. Students are to correct their own... or if you prefer, correct it with them.

Remember that students are to use good strategies to 'crunch numbers' allowing them to retain the learning as opposed to only learning it by memory.

In other news:
Thank you to Gabrielle and Brooklyn for bringing in healthy treats yesterday. Here's what it looked like:
Many fruit pieces had already been eaten before I took this photo! :-)



Thank you Brooklyn for this information on health benefits of the food you brought in!
