Math in Class
TIME is flying by! After a quick review on telling time to the nearest minute, we are now working on solving problems by telling time and determining elapsed time.***You can help your child by asking them to tell you what time it is, asking how many minutes until the next hour, how many minutes past the hour, and how many minutes have passed from the beginning to the end of an event.***

Homework
MATH: Make sure that your child is doing Reflex for math and getting the green light AT LEAST 3 times during the week.  If students do not complete Reflex at home they will complete it during recess time. 
READING: Please read 20 minutes every night and keep track of your minutes on our reading log. ******* I would love it if you would have your child read out loud to you for at least 5 of those minutes!*****
