I hope everyone is having wonderful start to 2013. The
kids accomplished so much in math during the 1st semester. We went from
reading whole numbers and decimals to long division. The students now
have the skill set that will allow them to become problem solvers. During
the spring semester our emphasis will change from the basics to using the
basics to solve multi-step problems. We will also look at geometric
shapes and identify their attributes. In February we will study fractions and
revisit decimals. During the month of March we will have fun studying
measurement. In April we will wrap it all up with probability.
While we cover all these different topics, we will be working hard each week to
become problem solvers. So, I hope everyone is rested and ready to
go. We are going to have a wonderful 2013 in math.
