Math –Unit 7

We started unit 7 this week in math.  On Tuesday, we worked on measuring capacity and they learned a drawing that will help them remember the conversions.  It’s something I still use!  I encouraged them to write it down when they are taking a test, to help them solve questions that may be difficult for them.  We also started discussing multiplying fractions and practiced it in our journal pages and as a whole class.  Kids really need to know their facts!  Please make sure your child is practicing if they don’t know them automatically.  Ten minutes of practice a day is enough!  They just need to do it over and over in order to have them come automatically.
