What did we do in class today?
Math:Today students will use systems of equations to help them solve word problems. ANNOUNCEMENT: Students will receive a Unit 5, Quiz 3 Study Guide today. It is homework to help them prepare for their Unit 5, Quiz 3 on Wednesday.
ELA (Mrs. Goodwin/Ms. Nielsen): Today students are finishing practicing using the QAR strategy by answering questions 4-8 for the article we read yesterday. Attached to those questions is another article and practice questions; students can complete that assignment the same way we worked on the other questions and earn 'extra credit'. Grades are updated; please look at your students' grades and comments for the assignments. Students will receive a progress report Friday so they can get any missing/redone work to complete over the weekend (they may get copies of assignments at anytime, however).
ELA (Mrs. Brown):Students will fill out a Critical Thinking Sheet from the story we read yesterday.
Social Studies: Students will start learning about Westward Expansion in the U.S.
