Happy Thursday- and weekend since we dont have school tomorrow!

Today was an awesome day at school. We finished language arts centers this morning. In math this afternoon we learned a saying to help us remember how to do long division.

The bold letters stand for the following: D- Divide, M-Multiply, S-Subtract, C-Check, B-Bring, D-Down. The students were encouraged to write the letters on the top of their paper to help them remember the steps to long division. A paper was sent home for homework on long division so that they can practice it over the long weekend. They will be graded on long division on Monday.

During the afternoon we worked in math centers and the students really loved them. Even I loved them! They were really fun and a great way to end the week. We will be continuing with these centers in the future. We also started an art project. When we are finished with them, they will hang in the windows of the one room school house on Beeson street. We will let you know when they are up so you can drive by and check it out!

Homework for the weekend: Read for 1 hour, practice math facts, long division worksheet, graphing packet (it is due tuesday but all of the bar graphs pages are due Monday- We highlighted them in class if they are due Monday), Timeline is due Monday, and the students have a science quiz on Tuesday. (A study guide was sent home today).

Have a great long weekend!
