Please review your multiplication tables! Practice really does help :)

Thank you to everyone who returned the scientist in school permission form already :)

We are working on inferring in class, and some of the students are struggling to apply what they know already to determine what the author is implying. I find riddles help a lot with the understanding of inferring. Ask your child some riddles and get them to guess what the answer is. For example, if a plane crashed on the Canadian and US border where would the survivors be buried? When they answer ask them why they guess the way they did :) then tell them that they inferred their answer!
