And we're back!

Monday we are starting to talk about percents and how to convert fractions back and forth to percents.  This can be a struggle, so we're trying to make it as easy as possible.  The assignment for today is the RPJ section of 5.5.

Also, a major focus now is the make sure all students have shown mastery of multiplication facts on xtramath.com.

Unless it's too cold, then we'll do it on Tuesday!  :)
