Basic Multiplication

 This week we will start reviewing our basic multiplication. If your child does not yet know their "times tables", don't fret, they are NOT alone. Partially because it is not a requirement in the curriculum. Weird, right? Ok, that's a PART truth. The facts are in the curriculum, but here is a direct quote:

Students should be able to recall many multiplication facts by the end of Grade 5 (e.g., 2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, 10s).

If you're looking for some super cheesy songs to help your child to remember their facts, I found this site: https://www.teachwire.net/news/10-of-the-best-free-multiplication-maths-resources-for-primary-schools Be warned, though, it is riddled with ads. 

Alright... onward and upward! Have a great week.

The theory portion of the quiz is OPEN BOOK, so students should check that they have all of the notes they will need. Here are the notes about the passé composé.
