Multiplying Methods

Today in math we began our look at multiplication. We discussed three different methods: the old school way, the break it down method, and the new school way (aka lattice method). By the end of class, most students said they were feeling fairly confident with at least one of the methods. Ask your student which way they multiply!

We began a new routine calle Goal Setting today. This is a weekly assignment we will complete in class. It requires the students to set two meaningful, realistic, and measurable goals. One goal will be an academic goal and one will be a personal goal. Ask your students which goals they set for themselves this week.

Please continue to hand in the Parent Questionnaire forms.
