This Friday is Family Fun Night! This is one of the kids favorites. They get to wear their costume and play games. Come and see all the amazing baskets that will be auctioned. A BIG THANKS to Nancy and Shelly for putting it together-It looks AMAZING! Your child is signed up for Xtra Math at school. However, it would be very beneficial if they practiced at home. Xtra Math helps with the fluency of multiplication. I see many of the students still looking at a multiplication chart for help. This is will make math very frustrating as most math skills we work on involve multiplication and multi-steps. Important Dates October 22-Lego Basket donations due Wednesday, October 24 -Picture Day Retakes Friday, October 26 from 5:00-7:00 - Halloween Family Fun Night at Arrowhead - Auction at 6:00 - Book Fair ELA-We will be working on a unit in Wonders that explores the question "What do good problem solvers do?" The literature we are looking at this week focuses on expository text and focuses on the comprehension skill of rereading, problem, and solution. We will learn about context clues. The focus in spelling this week are words with variant vowel o. Your child has access to Spelling City at home. Math-The students will be working on fluently multiplying multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm. We will begin division and and relate it to multiplication.

Ms. MartinThis is my 13th year teaching in Billings Public Schools. I was born and raised in Billings and attended Billings Public Schools! I love spending time with my family. My daughter graduated from U of M and I love to go and visit her and watch the Grizzly football games. Sorry Cat fans! My son graduated from Billings Public High School and is playing golf for MSU-Billings. If I am not with my family, you can usually find me walking my golden retrievers Lola and Winston.
