Homework

Yesterday, your child received a packet of math papers. Your child will receive a similar packet each week. It will be distributed on Friday and due the following Friday. (They are welcome to return it whenever they complete it however.)

The pages are double-sided. You may have noticed that one side of each sheet says "practice," the other says "enrichment." Third grade mathematicians are responsible for completing 3 pages (sides) each week. They can choose which 3 sides they would like to complete. Children who would like a challenge can choose the "enrichment" side. Children who need to practice the original lesson can choose the "practice" side. Some children asked if they could finish more than 3 sheets. They are welcome to complete as many as they would like, but they are only required to complete 3.

*Please note: Rosh Hashanah begins Wednesday evening. I suggested that children who celebrate this holiday finish their math homework earlier in the week. However, I do not want the packet to get in the way of people honoring the holiday. So, if this is an issue, please let me know.
