MATH NEWS!!!!

MATH NIGHT COMING IN JANUARY!
After reading all of your responses, we came to the conclusion that you are very busy during December! We had wanted to address any issues that your family may be having with the Pearson website sooner rather than later but with the Christmas program, a holiday party and all our busy schedules, we think it is in everyone’s best interests to postpone it. So mark your calendars for Thursday, January 7 at 6:30 – 7:30 PM. We will meet in the school computer lab. Please feel free to bring your children!!!

MATH FACT TEST WILL BE GIVEN WEEKLY -- Most students have passed all addition and subtraction tests with 90% accuracy. We will be starting multiplication tests for those who are ready on Dec. 11. We will try to test children each Friday. As they show mastery of one test, we will let you know in an email, and they will move on to the next test.
Unfortunately, the power point practice tests Mrs. Marlatt was sending out in emails are way too big. They are bogging down both our email and others. So we are going to try a new approach. We will burn the tests to cds. We can either loan the cd to you for an evening so you can copy the files to your own computer or we can sell the cd to you for $1.00 to defer cd cost. Let us know if you are interested in receiving a cd of the tests. We will include all addition, subtraction, multiplication and division tests on the cd so you will also have these available for siblings as they need them.
