Multiplication Facts - Today, we began an activity which will serve as an incentive for your child to learn his/her multiplication tables to 12. These are a MUST in the fourth grade!! The students will be given a bead each time they master a table (x2, x3, x4, etc.) through a timed test. The beads will then be strung to make a keychain. There will also be composite beads for completing a test with a group of timed tables. These beads will be much larger. So please....STUDY THOSE TABLES!!! :o)    

Cereal Box Book Report - This project is due on Wednesday, September 27th. The students should have their book read by now and should begin to work on the actual project. Please let me know if there's any problems.
