Weekly Update Feb.6 -Feb.10

“No one is perfect.  That’s why pencils have erasers.”  – Wolfgang Riebe

Math- This week, we will learn about multiplying fractions with fractions, fractions with whole numbers, and fractions with mixed numbers. Students have time in class to work on assignments daily. If students don't finish class assignments,  they will need to take their assignment home to complete for homework and return the next day. Please check Aspire Gradebook weekly, and as regularly as possible with your child. Unfortunately, several students didn't make it to Augilas of Excellence last Friday due to missing assignments. If students are absent, they have the same amount of days to make up their assignments. Any late work, or make up work completed during Friday's Make-Up day will not receive a full credit.

This week's Prodigy is on adding and subtracting fractions, to review what we have learned in class.

We use Prodigy to practice Math skills and concepts that we learned in class. Please include Prodigy in your child's daily Math homework routine for 20 minutes. Every student has an account and the password is Eagles.
