HOMEWORK at last!

Hi everybody! It's already THURSDAY! Where did the week go?

I have something a little different for you for this week's homework. Let's do a little MATH!

First, grab your notebook and start using your imagination. I'd like you to write your own word problem, just like the ones we did on page 13 in our workbook. You can make an addition problem or a subtraction problem (OR BOTH!). **DON'T write the answer to your problem, ok?

-----------------------------

Here is an example problem that I made:

Angus was planning a party. He decided to serve rice balls at the party, so he made 27 of them. Then he went to take a shower. While Angus was in the shower, Kyle came home and saw a lot of delicious rice balls on the table! He was so hungry that he ate 15 of them. How many rice balls were left?
-----------------------------

After you have finished writing your word problem (and ONLY after you have finished!), go to this website:

You can choose the kind of game that you want to play. I think

Addition with values to 100 - UNTIMED

is a good place to start and get some practice. Then, when you are used to doing the game, go back and try

Addition with values to 100 - TIMED


When you get tired of that, try

Subtraction with values to 100 - UNTIMED

and then, of course, you can do

Subtraction with values to 100 - TIMED

See how many problems you can do in one minute!!


See you on Saturday!
