3rd Grade Teachers
Please continue to study multiplication facts with your child nightly. Students are tested weekly on each of the facts. It is important for them to know these facts in order to be successful. Multiplication is one of our target skills. A great part of the test will focus on this skill. Students will be asked to apply these facts in a variety of ways in class and on T-Ready. This is review week of 3’s, 6’s, and 9’s.. ,
