I cannot believe this is our last full week before Thanksgiving! We have been working very hard at addition the past few weeks and this week we will be focusing more on memorizing our math facts. We will also start our taking timed math. We will start with 66 problems and the kids will have 10 minutes to complete it. This will not be graded. If you would like to practice at home I will attach the website I use to get the worksheets at the bottom of this post. The kids should have their facts (sums to 15) memorized by Christmas. Please let me know if you have any questions!
I am sure sure you heard that our principal, Mr. Tosti, did a somersault in our room last week because he was so impressed with how smart the kids are! Of course I had to get it on video! Check it out below and start your week with a laugh :)
