Math: We will finish chapter 8 this week. We will study perimeter, area, and volume. We will be taking the chapter 8 test at the end of this week.

Make sure to practice multiplication facts. A great way to practice is to play the card games we learned on Friday. If you keep a deck of cards by the TV you can press the mute button during commercial breaks and play a quick card game. It's a great way to practice and saves you from watching a bunch of advertisements.
