Fourth Grade
This
week we will probably be completing Chapter 8 – Multiplication of fractions by
a whole number, fractions, and mixed numbers. I would like to have one more
quiz before the end of the quarter, so we will be having a Math Vocabulary quiz this Tuesday or Wednesday. We have been
drilling our vocabulary every chance we get and they should all have a copy of
the words taken straight from their text book.
5th Grade Religion
Fifth Grade
5th graders will begin Chapter 8, Division of Fractions, this week. There will be a short quiz on Friday. We will continue practicing simplifying expressions on our Shamrock Ice Cream cones all through the month of March.
4th & 5th Grade Multiplication Facts
Most fourth graders should aim for completing 25 facts per minute and fifth graders should aim for completing 30 facts per minute. Some fifth graders have PASSED all their multiplication facts quizzes. You can print your own worksheets from Math-drills.com, play online games (see "Math Websites Tab" above), or borrow some "Holey Cards" from Mrs. Hall.
Fifth graders will begin retesting on facts they have not yet mastered this week. Each student received a list of facts to practice each week.
