Math Prayers

Dear God, May we, through your blessings, add purity in the world.

Subtract evil from our lives, multiply our good news,

​and divide Your gifts and share them with others. Amen

​

Almighty God, We pray to You to have our joys added, sorrows subtracted, friends multiplied, love divided, and problems solved. Amen

• We will not use rocket math this school year. We will use a different math program to master facts. It will be called fact check Friday. We will begin with addition facts 0-24. We will then move to subtraction facts 0-24. Students will have multiplication and division fact check Fridays once these facts are presented in class.

• ​Mastery of the basic math operations (adding, subtracting, multiplication, and division) will ensure that a proper foundation of knowledge is formed to build on future skills and concepts.

• Math facts should be practiced at home daily. Please see the 2 lists of useful math practice websites.

• Students will use IXL in math class. Students are also encouraged to use IXL at home. This will allow them to practice math skills covered in class.

• Students will have several opportunities for grading through classwork, homework, math facts review, quizzes, and tests. Math quizzes and tests will be given. When preparing for a quiz/test, please review the Reteaching section and practice Topic Test in the textbook. Word problems should be answered in complete sentences. All work should be shown on the test.

• Please refer to the reteaching intervention and chapter practice test at the end of each chapter.
