ELA:
NO VOCABULARY THIS WEEK! Due to the short week we will not have a vocabulary lesson or test this week. We will resume next week with more homonyms! Since this is the end of the quarter we will be wrapping up all assignments from last week. No new RRJ or writing packet. We will have a leveled reader activity due on Thursday along with our Achieve 3000.
New expectations for the 3rd 9 weeks: In order to prepare students for middle school and to ensure they understand the importance of deadlines, I will now be taking off points for late work. I will continue to except late work but will be taking off 10 points for each late assignment.
Book totals for the 2nd nine weeks are being calculated. Students should have read a total of 12-13 books so far. There will be an Ice Cream Party for all students who have reached this goal so far.
Students took their winter Level Set test for Achieve 3000 last week. I will be sending home a report for your review and signature displaying current lexile levels versus expected levels, as well as total books read.
The Bin of Happiness winners for the secret blog word this week were Brock and Alysa! This week's secret blog word phrase is "Readers are Leaders"!
Congratulations to Ms. Tiberio's homeroom for winning the Top Dog Competition between homerooms this past 9 weeks. They will enjoy Twizzle Ups as their reward! Good luck on the next round to both classes!
Math: We will continue working through Module 4.
Lesson 13: Multiplying unit fractions by unit fractions
Example: Jan has 1/3 pan of crispy rice treats. She sends 1/2 of the treats to school with her children. What fraction of a pan of crispy rice treats does Jan send to school?
Lesson 14: Multiplying unit fractions by non-unit fractions
Example: 3/4 of Benjamin's garden is planted in vegetables. Carrots are planted in 1/2 of this vegetable section of the garden. How much of Benjamin's garden is planted in carrots?
