Math for Week of October 12- 16, 2015

We are getting to the point where we need multiplication facts.  I find that the children know some, but not all of them.  There is an hesitation when I ask for multiplication facts (even 2s and 5s).  I have decided to devote this whole week to multiplication facts and fact families.  We need to have these multiplication facts down without hesitation.

You can help your child by insisting they work on these facts for 30 minutes every evening.You can also call out multiplication facts as you drive down the street on you way to school or going home from school.  We will be having contests and playing games that require knowing these facts in class.  

Let's grit our teeth and get these multiplication facts committed to memory!!!
