Websites

Mathletics has been rolled over and the children should be in their correct levels again (sorry to those who suddenly had very hard questions).

Students should be able to log into Storybird with their mathletics user name and password which will allow them to save their work. We have had some trouble with loading the pictures at school. Not sure what the issue is but we are working on it :)

Story bird assignment

Login to storybird and check out your first assignment.

This is a 'can do' for this week. Remember that even though it is a 'can do' it needs to be complete within 1 week.

All completed tasks earn 20 house points. The person who has done their best writing will earn a bonus 50 points!

Have fun!
(don't forget you need to login with your mathletics info)
