Division
Students are working on dividing numbers, using several strategies. Check out our blog for a video of these strategies. Students need to see the relationship between multiplication and division and know the related facts.
EX: 4 x 3 = 12; therefore 12 divided by 3 is 4
Continue to practice multiplication and division at home.

The Rainforest is Coming!
Arrangements have been made for an appearance of Understanding Wildlife's "LIVE ON STAGE, THE RAINFOREST" to appear in our community. This will take place at Graham Elementary on Monday, March 20.
Animal trainers will make a presentation during the day for all students at Graham Elementary at 10am and 2pm. They will explain how energy conservation and recycling can help save the beautiful animals of the rainforest.
Then at 6:30pm, a wildly entertaining program will be put on for your entire family. Students will be able to interact with a few of these magnificent creatures. Flying macaws, talking amazons, and very mischievous monkeys will keep you laughing all night long. The cost for the program is five dollars per person. (children under 3 years old are admitted for free). Plan now to attend and please, all children must be accompanied by an adult. | ||||||||||||
