This Week’s Work

Hello parents!

This week’s Math has been a challenge for me. We have been working on decomposing fractions, adding and subtracting fractions, and fraction word problems (4.nf.3 is the standard). We have 26 students in our class and 26 different levels when it comes to fractions. I have been working with students one-on-one and assessing each of them. 

I told the students I would not be posting homework this week. However, there are many students in class that need extra help or practice. So what I have done is assigned work on FrontRow and Wonders that are specific to your child. I always tell students that I don’t make promises because things are always changing in the classroom!

As I said, the assignments I have given are specific to your child. For example, I assigned division practice to many of them because we need to have those facts solid while doing fractions. I also assigned “Exit Ticket” work on the standard to everyone. If you don’t see any assignments for them, it is because they are all caught up. Most assignments are short and don’t take long to finish up.

The work on FrontRow and Wonders are not due by Friday. Just have the students get those done as soon as they can. I am telling students to make it a habit to go to FrontRow and Wonders each day after school to see if there are things they need to finish up. Support from the parents to make sure this happens would be great! THANKS for all you do!
