Tomorrow we will take a Math test over the most recent 10 Math lessons that we have had in class. There will only be 4 problems on this test. Three of the questions are word problems. There are 2 things that your child MUST do on those problems in order to get full credit (total amount of points) for that question. They must:
1. SHOW their answer. This means that I need to be able to clearly see their answer when looking at their page.
2. They must EXPLAIN how they got their answer using either pictures, numbers, or words.
We did practice these things today and review for the test. They have been working very hard every day and I have equipped them with all the tools they need to be successful on this test, but please remind them of these very important things tonight before we test in the morning!
Also.. PLEASE make sure they can write a number in expanded form (300+50+2=352), word form/number names (three hundred fifty-two), and unit form (3 hundreds 5 tens 2 ones).
Those are things that I have been working on with them every single day!
Thank you for your cooperation!
