Dianne Brewer

Hello and Welcome To Grenada Upper Elementary!

My name is Mrs. Dianne Brewer.  I teach multiage, 4th and 5th grades.  My teaching partner is Mrs. Montgomery. My favorite subject is Math.  I love to teach math and am dedicated to helping the children in my classes learn to love MATH as much as I do! I live in Coffeeville with my husband, Eddie, and my daughters, Marley and Maddy. 

My conference time is from 11:50 to 12:35.   Call 662-226-2818 to schedule a date if we need to meet. 

Having taught Math for a while, one problem pops up every year: getting students to commit multiplication facts to memory.  I've been researching, trying to find a solution to this problem.  I found an article called "The Bare Facts about Learning the Facts" at http://math.about.com./  Check it out! I will be using this method in the classroom. You can print out practice sheets for your child, too. IT'S FREE!! 

Students, school is YOUR workplace.  Make it a great day on the job!  YOU can help by making sure you are organized and ready to learn.  Get your homework and other school items ready the night before so that you won't forget things if you happen to wake up late or if the bus is early! Anybody's morning can get off to a rough start.  It doesn't have to ruin your whole day!
