Envisions Math
Please have your child practice their multiplication facts at home daily. Even if it is for 5 minutes, the hard work and practice will pay off and be so beneficial. This fall, I sent home information regarding an online math program called "First In Math". We have a subscription for every student in our class. Students are encouraged to practice at home if able. If you do not have internet access, please use flashcards or practice orally with your child. Thanks for your support!
Wonders
We also started our Book Clubs. There are three different book clubs going on in our classroom right now. We are reading and discussing the books in class daily - in small groups, with a partner, or independently (changes daily). After students are done reading the book, they will be making dioramas of a scene from their book. Please send in a small box/shoe box at your convenience. Thanks!
