Math Matters:

We have completed our study of unit rates and have moved onto ratio tables.  We are continuing to understand these concepts in everyday life by participating in math centers focusing on unit price and comparison shopping.  Parents, you might want to take your student with you while you grocery shop.  They'll be sure to find you some bargains!
