• 1.  Math Homework:  most days, if we complete the in class math lesson, students are expected to bring home a practice homework page.  This page is a great support to exactly what we are working on in class.  Students are also encouraged to work on several of our online sites to promote their math learning.
  
  
  IXL.Com is an excellent resource new to our classroom.  Students can pick grade levels of practice to either pick up on skills in past grades or push their thinking on grade level or advance to 5th or 6th grade learning. Student work is tracked thru this program and I am able to see the work they have done. To log on:
  
  
  Google Search:  IXL.com
  username:  (Students have individual usernames written in their planners)
  Password: nisely04

Students need to work through the problems under Fourth Grade, D24.

2.  Banana Project is due this Thursday, October 30th.  See blog from October 6th-10th for details.
