Educational Studies
Reading
Upon our return to school, we will be focusing on preparing for the EOG tests. We will be analyzing question wording to determine what the question is asking and looking for the best answer choices.
Math
Time for review! We will be spending much of our time in small groups reviewing skills as needed based off of homework and practice EOG tests taken in the classroom. We will also work on breaking down multi-step story problems and using graphics (sketches or charts) to guide us through all of the steps.
