Good Evening Parents,
Today in class your child discussed how the distributive property can be modeled with arrays. This strategy can help solve larger multiplication problems.
While teaching, I began to notice that this skill is quite advanced for our students. Please feel free to watch this video below for extra guidance and help:

Good Evening parents!
Sorry this is finding you so late. Today and tomorrow I will be out of the building due to a Leader in Me Training. While I’m away learning about how to make our students be the best leaders, I will be having a sub. I hope to hear wonderful things when I get back!
In addition, there was math homework supposed to be sent home today by the sub.If your child is struggle with the distributive concept, please feel free to watch this video below. I will be back on Wednesday to help cover and review the concepts taught today and tomorrow!
Good Evening Parents,
On tonight’s homework, make sure to pay attention to number 6. This problem will be reflected in our mid-module assessment! In addition, if your child is struggling with the commutative arrays feel free to watch the video below for help!

Our first field trip is going to be on October 5th to the Dearborn Fire Safety House. We will be leaving the school around 9 and will be returning around 11:30. The field trip is free for all students!
Today your child will bring home a permission slip. Please make sure to review the permission slip and return by Wednesday, September 26th.
If you are interested in being a chaperone, please make sure that you have filled out the background check at the main office. Only parents who have an approved background check may go. Many background checks tend to expire this year. So please double check the main office !
Let me know if you are interested in chaperoning as well!
I hope you are all having a wonderful Wednesday! Today in class we discussed the commutative property of multiplication, and how it can be shown using arrays. If your child is getting stuck on their homework, please watch the video below!
Please see the post below from the PTA:
There was a mistake with the payout amount for the prizes on the letter that was sent home. The raffle tickets have the correct amount.
1st – $500
2nd – $250
3rd – $250
We will also give a $50 gift card to the family that sells the most tickets
Thanks so much!!!
Good evening parents!
I just wanted to remind you that tomorrow there will be a Late Start. Please make sure to check your calendar for start times!
In addition, today your child was sent home the exit ticket from yesterday’s lesson. We had already completed this exit ticket yesterday in class, however we reviewed the components that many students were stuck on today. Please work with your child on solving the problem. If you are stuck on the lesson, please watch the YouTube video below for guidance!
