Adelina's Whale

HO! HO! HO! Last week before Christmas vacation! We still have work to do...... The most important thing you have to do this week is to finish your OAS tests. If you scroll down, you can find the link to OAS on last week's blog. Once you have finished those, you can complete the other activities on here.


This is a fun game to practice your division facts, once you "blast" the correct quotient, you have to fly through the empty spot you created.
