It's Getting Cold Out There!
December 5th- 9th
Hour of Code
This week we got to participate in a multi-grade level group adventure!! We were computer programmers for the day. The Hour of Code, which occurred on Thursday was an opportunity for us to learn to CODE!!
Xtramath
Please remind your children to complete their XTRAMATH practice each night. I know this tool covers basic concepts, but mastery of these operations is vital as they progress on the continuum of math exploration.
Fluency with all basic operations will help them progress and succeed with more rigorous concepts. These are important facts that lay the foundation for all other math concepts.
Additional websites and strategies exist for practice as well. Please reach out if more support is needed. The students have access to a Google Doc with other practice sites and ideas-- ie: games, drills, flash cards.
Students complete 5000 problems!
Our math class has completed over 5,000 IXL math problems online! WE are really getting proficient at a great number of skills through our use of the online mathematics program, IXL.com. Please encourage your children to explore this math site even when not assigned for homework. All questions are self corrected and explained. It is a great site to help them gain mastery!!
All of your children have their logins and accounts!
