It has been a great start back!  We began a new math chapter on division.  So far we are making equal groups using manipulative to help "get the pictures" in our heads and to physically create the equal groups.  The kids are doing great seeing both the division and the multiplication sentences that goes with each picture!

      Next week along with spelling words, I will start sending home a sheet of homework (usually math) on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  I have talked to the kids about getting into good habits of where and when homework will get done for them.  After this year they will get grades as well as a lot more homework.  I want them to get used to having some extra work as well as developing good habits.  I would like to have the homework returned the next day...Wed. or Fri.  I will not send work on weekends.  If your child does not bring work home on those days, they may have gotten it done at school.

     In reading we will begin a new unit on Monday.  Spelling will continue the way it has been...pretest home on Monday, test on Friday.  

Any questions on anything please let me know!  

Have a great weekend!
