Math Test - sent home (am)

Today in class, we took up our first math test (Multiples, Factors, and Divisibility). Students prepared their assessment duotang and completed an analysis of their answers. Overall, the test was well done. Multiple choice was a new concept for many students and we will continue working on strategies throughout the year for these, and other, types of questions.

Parents are asked to review the test and analysis with their child. Each student was asked to make goals on how to improve for future tests (e.g. attend help sessions, asks more questions, highlight important information in a question, etc...). We will be starting our second unit - Patterning - tomorrow.
