No homework over the long weekend. Enjoy!

IF you are looking for something to do, I'd suggest "brushing up" on your summer reading plots so that you will be able to add to our discussions next week. Also, I have discovered that some students would benefit from added practice with good ole' addition and subtraction. Speed and accuracy!

Thursday, Aug. 30:

• Any more school supplies needed??????
• Parent homework is due tomorrow. ("About My Child" worksheet)
• Students are asked to improve their speed and accuracy of addition facts by taking 100-problem timed "test" TWO more times. Hopefully, someone at home can time them (up to 5 mins.) and tell them how many problems are incorrect/missing. We are looking for improvement from the baseline we took in class today. *The expectation at this level is 90-100% in 4 minutes or less.
