Math Race Hall of Fame
In order to encourage the students to challenge themselves a bit more with regard to Math Races, I have instituted the Math Race Hall of Fame. Each day I will nominate two problems, one from a boy and one from a girl, in each class. At the end of the week, the students will vote for what they think is the most impressive problem. The winners will then be photographed and their photo, which will show their problem, will be placed on display in the hallway. Their photo will stay on display for one week until the next weekly winner is announced. With 4E's play going on, they have not yet done Math Races, so 4C already has 4 nominees while 4E has none. Please encourage your child to design challenging Math Race problems. Be sure that they pay attention to the order of operations as they create their problems.
4C Math Race Hall of Fame
Here are the nominees for Friday, February 18th.

Help with Multi-Step Word Problems
Hello all,
One skill that we have been focusing a lot of attention on this quarter has been the ability to solve word problems with multiple steps. These multiple steps usually require using different operations as well. I am currently working on a list of websites that could provide some at home practice. I have placed one such link below. Check it out and let me know what you think. Have a good day.

The nice thing about this site is that it provides a video explanation of the solution.
