I have distributed the vacation homework packet today for completion between now and when we return from vacation. There are 9 pages to work on in the packet. My preference would be to have the students do a page or two at a time, and not all in one shot, so they keep their mathematical minds working during the break on a more regular basis. Have a great vacation!
Be well,
Mr. Hostash
This blog has been created as a resource for students in Mr. Hostash's grade five class. In addition, I hope others out there find it useful as a resource to help their students/children.
