So here we are on Thursday! Can you believe we are already finished with one week of summer school? I am very proud of what you have been doing so far. I am curious to hear what you think about math class so far.
In the comment section, leave me a comment (use your first name and last initial only) to let me know:
1. What has been your favorite part of summer school (math class)?
2. What haven't you liked so much?
3. How have you used math this summer?
I hope you all have a great weekend! See you on Monday!

Off to a good start!
Well, we have already finished two days of our summer program and I think it is off to a good start! It is fun to meet new students, and I am excited that everyone is awake and anxious to be there. Today in math class we talked about place value and created number charts from the millions to the hundred-thousandths. When might we use a number that is in the hundred-thousandths?
We also reviewed rounding rules. Remember:
"5 and above, give it a shove; 4 and below, let it go!"
How do you use rounding in your life? When does it come in handy?
I am looking forward to getting to know all of you better. We have a lot planned for the next four weeks. Keep up the good work! Feel free to leave a comment and let me know what you like or don't like so far...see you tomorrow!

Off we go...
Time sure flies! I can't believe it is already the end of July and a new school year is right around the corner. I am anxious to meet all of the Page students who are attending this summer. I am curious to know what you like about math and what your favorite and not so favorite parts are.
My favorite part of math is percents and number sense. I love being able to quickly calculate percentages when I am shopping (I always love great bargains!). I like the way numbers are like a puzzle and using them to figure out various patterns.
I hope you are excited for another school year. What are you excited about this school year? What is your favorite part of math and not so favorite? What are your favorite activities outside of school?
Looking forward to seeing you all!
