The children will bring home their corrected math quizzes today. In order to move to the next quiz they need to have no more than 2 problems wrong. In addition, they need to finish the quiz within a certain time. (I don't tell them what the time is, because that tends to stress them out. :o(
In your child's folder you should find their corrected quiz. The quiz has their score on it given as a fraction - the number correct over the total number of problems. All children completed their quiz accurately, however, most of them did not complete the quiz quickly enough. If I wrote "You got it!" on the quiz, they passed and will go on to the next quiz (+1,+2,+3). Those children received 3+ flashcards to study for that quiz. They should cut the flashcards out and begin studying tonight.
If I wrote "Keep studying" or "Study harder so you can go faster" on the quiz, the child needs to keep studying +2 so they can complete the first quiz more quickly. (If anyone needs new +2 flashcards, they are welcome to them.) I have emphasized to the children that I don't want them to worry, I just want them to study hard.
The next quiz will be given on Tuesday.
As always, don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.
