Celebrate!

We have all passed our  timed multiplication facts through the 12’s!  We had an ice cream party Wednesday to celebrate our accomplishment!  Although we won’t be taking weekly quizzes anymore, we will still practice our facts daily for the remainder of the year.  There will be similar quizzes to come in 5^th grade, so I highly recommend you keep practicing at home and through the summer! We’ve worked to hard to forget them!

The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere
