Math
We will not begin the Math portion of K-PREP until Friday, so until then we will continue on with our new learning.
This week we will study geometry and how different shapes have different characteristics. We will also study perimeter and work on solving real-world problems that relate to area and perimeter. To wrap up, we will do some review of everything we have learned this year.
