We recently have been doing home visits. I have loved every minute of it. I love being able to meet the whole family and see how my students are at home. I also love getting to know the parents more. Each family is so unique and different and they are all so amazing. I am so grateful for the families we have at Woodrow Wilson and I can't wait to do more home visits and meet even more of them.

APTT went great. I am so grateful to the families that came and I am grateful to the students who invited their parents. We had all the sixth graders get together to make the invitations. Multiplication Facts GamesEven if you weren't able to make it to APTT you can still play the multiplication games with your child. All you need is a deck of cards and you are set. Here are the instructions for the two games... Multiplication War
Salute
Directions: 1. The “General” shuffles the deck of cards, holds them face down, and instructs the two “Sergeants” to choose a card, but not look at it. 2. When the General gives the command to “salute” each of the Sergeants salute by bringing the card up to their foreheads, without looking at their own cards. 3. The General tells them the product of the two cards. 4. By looking at the card of the other player, each Sergeant must determine the value of his or her own card. 5. The first Sergeant to answer with the correct value of his or her own card wins both cards. 6. The players keep going until the general’s cards are gone. 7. The sergeant with the most cards becomes the new general! |
