Moving on to Division

We have been working on Multiplication for the last few weeks, and now we are moving on to DIVISION!!!!! We are using a fun way to learn our division. Ask your child how he/she learned how to divide. (Hint: it has something to do with cookies!!!)

So, one of the best things to continue to do with your child is to keep working hard on memorizing their multiplication facts. This is so so so helpful in continuing to build on what they already know. Division will be so much easier if they "know" their facts. By "know" I mean they know it as soon as they see the multiplication problem. They aren't counting on their fingers or in their head. They have have have to memorize their fast facts. This is one thing that I am absolutely passionate about for my kiddos here! I want every child to "know" their multiplication facts by the time they leave my classroom in May. We start that now and never stop!!!!
