During math we focused on Chapter 4. We are doing sample problems and discussing answers. We will continue this after lunch. Kids will bring the completed Review/Test home with them this evening. The test questions will be very similar in format.
Today we began a mini unit on the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King. We will continue to discuss Dr. King's life and vision tomorrow. The phrase of the day is "civil disobedience. " More to come tomorrow.
This evening at home....
- make sure that your have read 1-99 in Ivan. Tomorrow, we will meet in book groups.
- study for the Math test. Can you explain the problems on the Review/Test?
- Finish the last week's Lab Report, if you didn't finish in class. Here are the components: Title/Question, Materials, Hypothesis, Procedure, Results/Data/Averages, Conclusions. Most kids finished up in class.
- In Readers Notebook, you should be done with pages 145-145, 146, 147 and 148. Most children finished 145, 6, and 8 in class. This leaves just ONE page for most.
- In Earth Dragon, use the text to answer the " Analyze Text" questions. Remember, these are the questions found every few pages.
- Have you finished your Pen Pal letter? I hope to mail them tomorrow. Let's get them decorated and done!
Our next chapter in Go Math will focus on finding and modeling factors and multiples. I am excited to move on to some new material.
Congratulations, 201! We have sent JiJi to Lascaux, France. Our class has worked through 30% of the syllabus. Let's try to get that number closer to 50%. I know that we can do it!
Do you want some extra credit? Find out why Jiji wants to visit Lascaux. What will he do while he is there? Write a report about his visit. You can create a journal, a travel brochure, or a set of postcards. Bon Voyage!
This week's grammar focus is......Possessive Nouns! Watch and learn!
