Homework for Week of September 22, 2008
September 22, 2008 by James Hendricks
Hi Team Hendricks Families,
As we are beginning the new Bridges in Mathematics program this school year, there are bound to be bumps along the way. After collaborating with our mathematics consultant on Home Connection #1, there apparently was an issue with the timeline. For that, I apologize! Because of the issue, I am going to reduce the “written” homework this week and will only be assigning the Home Connections activities.
As I told the students today, it is important for them to get as much done on Home Connection #1 on Monday and Tuesday. This will alleviate some of the homework this weekend. I do not normally assign homework over the weekend, but the timing of the Home Connection #2 is important. Below, you will find the homework for the week and weekend.
| MONDAY |
- Work on Home Connection #1 – Solving Addition Facts – Due Friday
- You may turn your Home Connection #1 in early!
- Home Connection #2 is coming home this Wednesday and you will have work to do! Make sure you are using your time wisely to finish up Home Connection #1.
