Welcome Back!

It was lovely to see everyone back this morning!  I trust that you all had a restful winter break! 

We started Monday this week with a new math unit on fractions and decimals.  This is a difficult concept for some students so I encourage all families to incorporate fractions into as many daily activities as you can.  One of the best ways to work fractions into "home" activities is cooking; think measuring cups!  How many 1/2 cups make a whole cup, how many 1/4 cups make a whole etc.  Thanks! We are currently working with "equivalent fractions" and "mixed numbers."
