Multiplication facts

Please help your child start to learn their multiplication facts. We will be starting with the 1x and 2x tables. After that we will be learning 5x, 3x, and 4x.
Flash cards, games, computer programs and quizzes are all good ways to help your child memorize their multiplication facts.
Thanks

Remembrance Day slideshow

If you would like me to e-mail you a copy of the slideshow that the students completed, please e-mail me a message at mhoodspith@sd44.ca
I tested the slideshow on an iPad and it works fine. Hopefully, it will open on other devices.

Ps they did a great job! (we did have some technical difficulties along the way)

Subtraction and addition test Wednesday

Please take some time over the next few nights to practice addition and subtraction of two digit numbers with regrouping. 

They can write any questions they like and then either have you check them or they can check their answers with a calculator.  The hardest part for many is switching back and forth from adding and subtracting.

sample questions:

  56
- 47

  79
+83

  84
- 75
