Important Information for the Week
- We have been working on multiplying by multi-digit numbers this week. We have practiced many IXLs this week, but I will not be taking grades on them until next week. Next Friday, students should have the following IXLs completed: C1, C3, C4, C10, C13, C14, and C18. They will have and have had PLENTY of time in class to work on these as well. If not, they should be completed for homework.
- Same goes with the single Multiplying TenMarks that has been assigned. We are spending the entire day next Wednesday working on this in class. It is due completed by next Friday, October 9th.
- Please continue to check over your students' grades. They are updated each week, and they are well aware of what they can and need to do to bring up their grades.
- We are going to Grandfather Mountain and Linville Caverns on Monday, October 19th. I am drawing our parent chaperones this weekend. If you are interested in attending, please make sure to complete the Google Form by Saturday night, October 3rd. I will be sending an email to all involved parents Sunday letting you know of the results.
