WELCOME

Math will be exciting and revealing this year.  We will learn new skills and solidify previous knowledge.

Daily we will have:                       Warm-ups                              

                                                         Instruction                            
                                                         Problem Solving
                                                         Wrap-ups       

Remember to bring:                    Pencil/Pen
                                                         Notebook
                                                         Great Attitude
                                                         Willingness to Learn

We will be taking notes daily and using that information in class.

Presentations:  These activities will be combined with ELAR, Science, and Social Studies.  The base scenario will be the same for all, with a math emphasis or process idea being the focus for this class.
