Math

Student got a Math test returned to them.  It should be signed and returned.  Students had difficulty with factors and multiples.  This is a key concept for elementary math, so I will reteach is and give students another chance to show what they know with a new quiz.  For the students part,ethey should review their work and be sure they understand these key concepts as much of the math to follow builds on these concepts.

Students also are reviewing 3 digit multiplication and division. 
2 Multiplication worksheets due Friday
Division worksheet due Tuesday
