One Hundred

Okay, so not so great about the daily posting. Sorry about that!

Today the kids have a DOL, some Math, and some of them are finishing up their journal assignment from today. One thing on the Math: Some of them seemed confused on the "divisibility by 9" rule. It is the same as 3 (where you add up all the digits in a number, and if the sum is divisible by 3, the whole number is divisible by 3), except that you have to divide the sum by 9 instead of 3. For instance, 9,585 is divisible by 9 because 9+5+8+5=27, and 27 is divisible by 9. Therefore, 27 is divisible by 9.

The kids ALL turned in their DOLs when we graded them yesterday! WOOOOHOOOOO! In fact, so far, this class has a 100% turn-in rate on homework. Let's keep that up!
