Homework

Each night have your child read for at least 15 minutes or play Dreambox, Prodigy or math games from the blog (links on the right) for at least 15 minutes.

You can also work on multiplication.  In grade 3 students need to be able to multiply up to 7 x 7.  We have learned several different strategies to multiply:

                  3 x 6

1. Repeated addition    

6 + 6 + 6         3 + 3+ 3+ 3+ 3+ 3



2. Skip counting

3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18



3. Pictures



4. Arrays


Give your child a question and see which strategy they prefer,
