Tonight's Homework with Help

Good afternoon,

Here is tonight's homework:

Reading: Read 20 minutes and complete Character Map

Math: Study 11's multiplication; Complete circled problems on Lesson 13 and 14 Homework (So sorry the papers got stapled the wrong way)- Lesson 13 problems 1c, 1e, 1f, 2, 3; Lesson 14 problems 1c, 1d, 1f, 2c, 2e, 3, 4

Homework Help Links:

Lesson 13

Lesson 14

Note to parents: Some students understood the concept but may need extra support.  To put numbers on the number line, I asked "How many tens or hundreds are in the number you are rounding?" Problem 4 for Lesson 14 may be a challenge for some.  Make sure they are explaining their thinking.

Always remember: If your child is struggling with understanding the concepts, email me or write a note and I will address the issue.

What is my child learning in math? Here's a link explaining Topic C...

Here is a link (Module 2 Topic C) to the Topic C parent newsletter.  Please feel free to read up on what your child will be learning the next 2 days.  We are focusing on rounding so this would be helpful information to help your child succeed!!!

Welcome Back & Tonight's Homework 1/3

Good evening,

Welcome back families.  I missed my students so much over the break but I had a very relaxed break.  I hope you all got a chance to relax as well.  Several students told me they wished they had one more week.  We had an awesome first day back.  The students got back into their routines and had a fabulous day.  We took SRI testing which helps us to know your child's Lexile and get their practice range.  I will be sending something home soon once we get Reading A-Z finished.  If you would like to know how your child has done, please email me.  I will try to send out personal emails this week.

Here is tonight's homework:

Reading: Read 20 minutes; Find a cause and effect relationship in your book (write it down and have it ready for tomorrow)
