Good afternoon!
We had a few students not turn in a Math Log last week. These studentswere disappointed when they learned they werent able to attend the No
Late Work Reward Event due to the fact that their log was incomplete.
I want my math students to be attending this event. I want my math
students to have attain mastery of all the math facts!
So Im sending along a suggested schedule for completing the Math Facts
Log which is due at the end of every week. I've made recommendations
for every night of the week, but remember you only need to total 50
minutes of practice per week. This suggested schedule allows you to
practice more than 50 minutes a week so you could take a day or two
off. The listed sites are very user and family friendly as the
students could achieve all 50 minutes of practice online. All
activities are placed on my blog located at
http://krupafourthgrade.blogsp
or you can copy and paste the websites to your address bar.
Here's the suggested timeframe for practice. We begin on a Friday.
