Math: This week starts our final round of math facts, 81 subtraction facts 0-18.  I'll be placing new math facts in the campus binders for your practice at home.  This week we are also pausing before the final chapter to review.  I will be sending home the on-going assessment (from Singapore Dimensions Book A) as well as end of year assessment for your student to work through on Thursday and Friday.  This is an excellent way for you to identify any areas where they need extra help or practice before the end of the year and also through the summer.  (There are a few problems from Ch 15 that they won't know yet-you can just have them skip those problems since we haven't covered that chapter.)
