MATH  Mrs. Hlavacek's Math class: We completed Unit 6 and we are starting Unit 7.  We will be working with equivalent fractions, as well as comparing fractions with unlike denominators.  Also, we will review strategies for multi-digit multiplication in this unit.  The class was introduced to a math strategy game called "24".  Ask your child about it.
