Can you believe we only have two more weeks?! I hope you and your families are planning something nice for the break. These kids work so hard at Archway. This week in math we will be doing word problems involving multiplication of decimals. After that we'll be ready for dividing with decimals. We should have no problem finishing up this unit before the break. I will be giving the students a study guide on Monday which will be due the following Monday. Enjoy the weekend!

Greetings math families! Sorry I've forgotten to update this recently. We are now working through Unit 7, using all operations in solving problems with decimals. We will spend the remainder of the week working with word problems, reviewing model drawing and expectations for these problems. These kids have a solid foundation based on what I observed this morning. Next week we will begin multiplication, followed by division with decimals. Should be a fun week!

Good morning! I almost forgot to write a blog for this week. I hope you and your families enjoyed the long weekend! We got out of the heat and went camping. Lots of fun, but lots of work as well.

This week we'll be wrapping up our first decimals unit in math. The study guide is due tomorrow and the quiz will be on Thursday or Friday depending on how well the students understand the last two lessons. The next unit is also decimals, but it involves calculations through all the operations. Have a great week!
