Linsday Elementary
 

Welcome to Mrs Jackson's Web Page!

Every week we have a Spelling Test on Friday!!!    Students write their words in their planner on the right hand column.    Study for 5 -10 minutes every night.

My math goal is that all my students know their multiplication facts by the end of 5th grade before we send them over to Handy.  There is a sticker at the bottom of their planner every week that says we are skip counting by 6's  or by  7's    Skip counting is easy when we learned to skip count by 5's     5,10,15, 20, 25, 30 Etc.  4's 6's 7's 8's and 9's are homework every night for 5 - 10 minutes.  Have your children  take their finger and write them on the table or in the air for practice.  For example  I would write and say  6, 12, 18, 24 ,30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60 with their finger on the table and say them out loud at the same time.  This activity helps the brain remember the numbers. 

AR Reading is also homework 15 minutes a night read a library book Monday - Thursday. Our AR goal is 1 point a week.

That is 30 minutes of homework  4 nights a week.  The students who do this have shown great improvement in their reading and math skills.   Thanks for your support!!!
