Math
Our mathematicians focused on...
- solving 4 digit by 1 digit multiplication word problems
- multiplying multiples of 10
- (ex. 60 x 30 = 1,800)
- (ex. 20 x 26 = 520)
- using models to multiply by multiples of 10
- reviewing their data to set goals and determine learning targets to work on
Please remember to practice multiplication facts nightly! In addition, Online Practice Buddies are assigned daily as optional homework. These are great ways to practice concepts at home!
