Stride Academy Homework REQUIRED
Starting this week, using Stride 80 minutes a week (20 min 4 times a week) is mandatory. Your child has been challenged. We have put up a football field on the wall. Their football player or cheerleader (they colored themselves) start at one end zone. Their goal is to move across the field to the other end zone. To do this, each week your child must meet their 80 minutes on Stride Academy goal. We will have twelve weeks to complete this challenge, including Spring Break. That means they only have 2 weeks that they can miss their goal. If they “score a touchdown,” meaning they met their 80 minutes goal 10 times, they get to attend a pajama, popcorn party the week of the STAAR test. There will be smaller rewards along the way. Please help them in their success by checking to make sure they are meeting their weekly goals.
REMEMBER TO ORDER YEARBOOKS!!!!!!
Learning Targets
Language Arts- This week in Language Arts and Social Studies we will start looking at the Civil War. We will be working in groups to understand what started the war and different battles that were fought. We will also be looking at leaders of the war and what their role was during the war. We will be making a newspaper article about different battles for our end project using Smore. Remember that your child should be reading each night 30 minutes. Have a great week.
Math- We will be working on a variety of strategies to divide decimals. Later this week we will be plotting ordered pairs on a coordinate grid, then transferring that information to an input/ output format.
Science- We will be finishing up our study of metamorphosis and inherited traits verses learned behaviors. On Wednesday, we will take a Science Benchmark, which will help us to set our goals for the Science STAAR Test. Then, we will be finishing up our eco-columns project. I will be sending a note home asking for families willing to take them home on Friday.
