Math
What's Happening This Week?
- We will review the district assessment that students took last week. Data from this assessment will be used to drive small group instruction.
- Introducing 3 x 2 digit multiplication through arrays and ratio tables.
Homework: Homework is given daily Mon-Thurs. Please check their agenda for the daily assignments.
*If your student forgets their math student book, it can be found on my website under the math tab at the very bottom.
Science
Energy & Engineering
Continuing:
- Students will demonstrate that the flow of electricity in circuits requires a complete path through which an electric current can pass and can produce light, heat, and sound.
**Lab Journal: Your student's lab journal should be a good resource to review essential learning from hands on experiences and experiments. When reviewing for any content assessment, it along with Google Classroom resources are your student's best friend.
With that in mind, students are encouraged to do their best work and thoroughly explain using scientific vocabulary (new and reviewed). Grades often come from how they explain their thinking.
