Here's a pic of our class during the assembly today:
In other news, tonight's homework is over the Associative Property of Multiplication. This is a little challenging, so your child may need some extra help. The Associative Property is the "grouping" property. This means no matter how you group the factors in an equation with more than 2 factors, the product is the same. *Important reminder is to always solve what is in parentheses first! So....
if the problem is (2 x 3) x 4, you would multiply 2 x 3 first. The product of 2 x 3 is 6, so you then multiply that 6 x 4 for a product of 24. You could group it differently and still get the same product. Example: 2 x (3 x 4). 4 x 3 = 12, and 12 x 2 = 24. Hopefully this will help if you get stuck tonight!
Other homework tonight is Reading Log and study for DR 12 Quiz on Thursday. There is no Language Arts test this week, but your child should have brought last week's test home yesterday.
Remember to turn in the RSVP if you are planning to join us for Thanksgiving Lunch next Thursday, November 20th. I also sent home a form yesterday about what to do in the event of early dismissal. If you didn't return this today, please send in as soon as possible (just in case!).
Finally, if you are able to send in any treats for our Treasure Box, that would be so helpful!! Everyone has been so good that our supply is running low!
Thanks so much for all you do!
