* HOMEWORK: COMPLETE “Strands 1-6 Review #2” if need be.
Martinez: Volume investigation. Making boxes.
* DPP due date is extended to this Friday. Please have your child complete all of the problems they can do on their own. If they work hard to solve a problem but can’t quite figure it out, it is okay to leave it. This packet is simply good practice.
