Multiplication and Division Homework!

Hello Families!

We started multiplication today! Hooray!! There are a few changes to homework for this unit. You'll be getting a family letter today with some of this information, but just to clarify, here's what you can expect! Heads up - every night your child needs a homework helper. This can be an adult, a sibling, or a friend. The homework helper will need to sign their homework every night!

Every night, your child will bring home TWO homework pages. The first page looks like this (front and back). On the front, your child should use the equations to practice their times tables by saying them all out loud. Then, have the homework helper quiz them on it! On the back, there are math facts with the answers at the bottom. They should cover the answers when they are completing it, then check their answers when they're done!


The other page will have a homework and remembering side like always. The new part here, is the study plan. In class, we'll write our study plan (Practice my fives 6 times etc.) and the homework helper must sign this page to prove that they actually carried out their study plan.

 
As you can see, there is a lot of parent involvement in this unit. Please carve out some time to help your child with their study plan. The kids who show the most success in this unit, practice the most at home! Memorizing their facts is key in this unit!
 
Thanks for being involved in your child's education!!
 
-Mrs. McGaffey
