Welcome back after such a LONG weekend!
Today was another very productive day. I could get used to these!
We did a ton of rotations this morning.
Students worked on IXL (A new program we are using focusing in math and science)
Students found examples of figurative language in Shel Silverstein books.
Students read in small groups with Mr. Potter
Students worked on division in small groups with Mr. Potter
And students worked on Alliteration in small groups
That’s a lot of stuff!
Tonight students should shock me by showing their amazing abilities with alliteration.
The first worksheet is self explanatory. On the second worksheet, students brainstorm words that begin with the letter A, B, and C on the front in the boxes. They then use those words to create a sentence using alliteration, a la Dr. Seuss’ A B C. On the back they should do the same with D, E, and F.
Next we looked at all of the quizzes we took on Friday. Students received a sheet that they used to record all of their quiz scores.
They then used their performance to think about what they still need to work on to become proficient, and then specifically what they will do in order to achieve that.
They also recorded homework and reading logs turned in last week. We will start doing these weekly and students will be responsible for getting these signed and returned.
Tonight students have different math homework depending upon what they need to do. Below are four sets of decimals. If they need to work on adding, they should add these. If they need to work on subtraction they should subtract them. If they need to work on multiplication they should multiply them, and if they need to work on division, they should divide them!
1.4 .7
2.4 .6
.27 .09
.30 .06
So tl;dr
alliteration!!
Add, subtract, multiply, or divide these numbers based on what you need to work on:
1.4 .7
2.4 .6
.27 .09
.30 .06
Bring back your quiz sheet signed!
And read!
Have a good one,
