This week we have homework on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Monday's homework has a note at the top about an attached letter for more information. I do not send home these letters so if students have trouble understanding the name-collection boxes please make a note on their homework and send it back the next day. I will make sure to help them with that homework. We are spending our full math hour today working on name-collection boxes, so I'm hoping that most students will be able to remember the basic concept so they will be able to do their homework.
Friday's homework does not need to be returned to school. I don't usually give homework on Friday, but since this doesn't need to be returned, I am making an exception. You will receive many other fact triangle sheets like this one as this and the next unit in math continues. These are meant to be cut out and used as flash cards. We will have a set here at school, and this is a set for you to have at home. Cutting these out and keeping them in an envelope near the tv or bed is a great idea. Pull them out and do a quick practice during commercial breaks or right before students go to bed at night. The more practice they get with basic facts the easier other concepts in math will be as they move on through school. If you have any questions about the fact triangles please let me know.
We check-out books on Wednesday this week.
