Xtramath Program

Today we added another component to our scheduled computer time. We added Xtramath which is a program to help with mastery of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division facts. Students need to know these quickly in order to master them. They start out in addition and then move on as they master that operation. Congrats to Dylan for mastery in addition already on the 1st day!! We finished up Section 1 of Montana History today. Students got graded on this portion of it and now we are ready to move on. We read more of our Read-A-Loud, Pathki Nana today. Ask them to tell you what she learned about her childhood so far from her grandmother and why she is always sad. Have them predict to you how Grandmother is going to help her change. If they can do all this, write Pathki in the planner. In Lead 21 we got back into our small groups today. We will try and finish up our heritage unit in the next couple of weeks and then have our Heritage celebration. More on that at a later date. Remember Library books tomorrow. Also, if ordering Fallen Rock T-shirts, the orders are due on Friday. PTA movie night is coming up-see slip that came home today. Picture Day is Monday, October 14th. Have a great night.
