We have learned several two-digit by one-digit multiplication strategies this past quarter that we will continue to use throughout the entire year. All of these strategies rely on a strong base knowledge of multiplication facts up to 12. Please continue to practice nightly at home as we get ready to begin practicing two-digit by two-digit multiplication this next quarter!
Looking ahead with AR:
Remember that with each new quarter, students will have a new AR goal. Student ranges will be given out within the first couple of weeks of quarter 2. Please make sure your child continues to read at home to achieve the due dates below:
