PARENT UPDATES
March 15, 2010
Dear Parents--
Today is the first day of the last grading period of the 2009-2010 school year. Today everyone starts with a clean slate in behavior, homework, and grades. The possibilities are endless! Encourage your child to make their last quarter at Carolyn Park their best!
We will be finishing up adding and subtracting unlike fractions and mixed numbers this week and moving on to geometry.
Multiplication facts continue to be of paramount importance. They are essential for determining the LCD of two fractions and putting them into simplest form.
TOPICS FOR NEXT FEW WEEKS
Fractions:
Addition/Subtraction:
-with unlike denominators
-with regrouping to subtract
-with mixed numbers
