Weekly Homework

Homework is due Wednesday: We made a few adjustments to the homework. I will review their homework tomorrow as a class to ensure all is understood.

Read daily for 20 minutes (New Homework has read 20 min., three times a week)

IXL: Do one skill plan this week for math. Students know how to access skill plans.

Review multiplication and division facts a few times a week. Students can use games on IXL to review games or find some apps that help support this skill.
