Great commitment this week on Ten Marks to: Benjamin, Ben, Caleb, Jordyn, Jacob, Nic, Nydia, Lucas, Oliver, Parker, Rowan, Ruby, Skylar, Sophia, Reed and Maci (with a WHOPPING 4 HOURS)! They all spent over 30 minutes this week practicing their math skills at home. I still have over 50% of the class that struggles with basic multiplication facts. So taking this action at home is fabulous!
As we move into more advanced math, students need to know their facts. Have your student practice on the way to school, in the car, during breakfast on Ten Marks or any other website. This will help in your child's success in mathematics!
