A peek at our week...
Vocab: Unit 7, Test Friday
Math: The kids did a great job on measurement and perimeter! We are now moving into Time, Topic 16. The hardest concept is finding elapsed time. Try to give them real life examples in your everyday life. For example, if soccer practice lasts 45 min, and it takes 10 min. to get home, what time did soccer practice start if you got home at 7:00 P.M.? No tests this week. We may have a quiz over the lessons that I feel the class has mastered.
Science: We will continue to study matter. Please make sure the kids are not waiting until the last minute to study this material. They are always welcome to bring home their science journal to study the notes we take in class! We will not be having a science test this week.
