Friday Flurries

Hello Team201 Families,

I apologize for this late post.  If it doesn't happen at school, it usually doesn't happen until after dinner!

Today we....

  • corrected last night's homework.  We practiced turning fractions into decimals, and we learned how to use place value to compare decimals.
  • took our weekly reading comprehension test.
  • worked on our Just Like Me autobiographical pieces.  First, we recorded facts about ourselves.  Then, we embellished the facts with our opinions, hopes, and dreams.
  • went to Gym and Science Art
  • created our quilt squares using the West African Adinkra stamps on loan from the Field Museum





This weekend....
  • Complete the Math packet.  We will go over all of the answers on Monday morning.
  • Finish the Just Like Me/Artist in Me piece.  Most students are working on the final draft.
  • Read for pleasure
Next week's topics will include....
  • decimals, probability and measurement
  • light, sound and the human body
  • a new story entitled Juan Verdades . If you speak some Spanish, you might be able to make a prediction about the main character
  • the continuation of Holes
  • the completion of our African American Achievers projects
  • the creation of a Science Review packet
