To Study your basic math facts, you can log on to www.xtramath.org using the handout that was sent home last week in your child's mail. At the top of the directions page, they wrote their PIN number down. Use this PIN number to access the website at home. This is the website we use at school, along with our "mad minutes," to pracice basic facts. As I'm sure you are all aware, the quicker your child memorizes the basic facts, the easier math will be in 4th grade. When we get to long division this year for example, your child will need to know addition, subtraction, multiplication and division facts through 12 for just ONE problem. Not knowing these facts quickly will greatly slow their progress. We will focus on addition and subtraction for the first quarter only, then move to multiplication and division. I thank you in advance for your time and support with this important skill at home!
Please don't hesitate to call or e-mail me with any questions you might have.
