Hi Families!
We have been working hard already! We have started our math number sense unit, and have been focusing on prime and composite numbers as well as identifying factors and multiples. I have noticed the kids are struggling with multiplication facts, so daily practice will beginning shortly! If you are looking for things to work on at home, start at multiplication, it is the basis for everything we will be learning this year.
Also, I have found a great link to our grade 8 math text book..

We are currently on unit one if you would like to follow along at home. Homework will be coming home with your child if they do not finish their classwork, or if I notice they are struggling with a given topic. If that is the case, I will call you to have a conversation about program planning and implementation.
Thanks so much!
