Hard workers

Hi families,

The class has been working hard at understanding long division and being precise when solving using the traditional algorithm. Many students are consistently checking their work with multiplication; a great way to practice both skills! Next week we will be solving multiplication and division word problems! Many of these are three steps and require lots of thinking in order to accurately represent and solve. I am excited for students to use their growth mindset to help them tackle these. Be sure to ask your child how it is going next week.

In social studies we are also wrapping up our unit on map skills and moving onto studying The East. Students will have a quiz on the state locations and spelling on Wednesday 11/18. Then they will have a quiz on the location, capital and postal code on Tuesday 11/24. We are filling out a study guide today which will go home in their homework folder. The quizzes will also be written in their planner. Happy studying!!

Tomorrow is the Floral Fun Fair from 10-3. I hope to see everyone there!!
