My last post for 2011-2012 school year!

I hope you have found the blog useful to stay updated on assignments and activities going on in my classroom.  If you want to help your child prepare for next year, please have them practice math over the summer.  They all have access to IXL and can log in at anytime to stay current with their skills.  Practicing their basic facts, integers, order of operations and fractions will help them stay ahead of the game for next school year.  Do not let them get by with "I'm bored!!!!"  There are some cool math games out there for iPods, iPads and online.  Simply Google the topic and all kinds of options will come up.

I have enjoyed having your student in class!
Have a great summer!!!!
