took part in writing the introduction, and intentions. The theme of the Mass is

Fifth Grade
This week we begin Chapter 11, Geometry and Volume, our final chapter! Vocabulary is very important so I will encourage students to review it nightly. We will have a Quiz on Friday covering Lessons 1 - 4. Students will receive an online assignment during the chapter to view and take practice quizzes using the Animated Math Models. We will also begin preparing for our last Computation test.
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.
