2.  Excel Homework #62:  Your child had ample time (45 minutes) to finish in class.  If your child wasn't able to finish work at school, please have him/her finish math at home.  PLEASE correct your child's work at home.  If you find incorrect answers, please guide him/her to the correct answer.  WHEN the ENTIRE paper is finished and completely correct, please sign both sides and have your child put it in his/her "Organizer" in the Homework section for the return trip to school.  After papers are recorded and corrected, I recycle them at school.  HINT:  If you find any math papers in your child's "Organizer" they have not been turned in.   Please empty the "Completed Work" section of your child's "Organizer" EVERY DAY.
