Greetings 4th Grade Math Students,

Here is the homework for Monday night:

Mango and Papaya:  Please do both 73 and 74 (no #4 for any group on page 74, they're getting plenty of practice on the page before.  Student's may also solve the problem however they choose on problem #3 page 74)

*Kiwi group only needed to do 1-3, and 7-9, plus 10 and 11, on page 73  *(Page 74 is optional)
-this gave them more room to work.

Continue practicing patience was we go through our work with division.  It is a daily process.  Each day I have 1-5 kids who have the LIGHT GO ON, but if that hasn't happened yet, we have plenty of time.  Don't worry.

Greetings Math Students,

*Look for a Unit 2 math test next week Tuesday

Kiwi Group:  Page 55 due on Thursday

Mango and Papaya Group:  Finish page 55, and also 57 and 58 for Thursday.

We are working to make sure students are feeling good about 2 digit by 2 digit multiplication.  We have taught 2 different methods and either way works great.  We are strongly encouraging the Short-Cut method, which is the method we adults grew up learning.

Take care folks,

Mr. K
