A much better day!
This morning we got a good bit of language arts and math review in. We are a mere 4 weeks from the end of the quarter and EOGs……jeez. Can you believe it? We will be doing a ton of review and just a few new concepts in the upcoming weeks.
In math we’re still talking about the operations, and how we visualize them. When we are working with word problems we are asking ourselves these questions (and answering them on our paper!)
- What is the problem asking?
- What do I know?
- Draw a picture!
- How do I solve given what I know?
Tonight students should come up with 4 new word problems that are solved by these equations:
- 3 + 3/4
- 3 – 3/4
- 3 x 3/4
- 3 ÷ 3/4
And they have to be about ice cream sandwiches!
Speaking of ice cream sandwiches, we also had our ice cream sandwiches today. It was pretty delicious.
In Language Arts students have some centers from last week to finish. If they spent their time at centers last week well, they should have little left to do.
At the end of the day we lost power in the school for the better part of 2 hours. This was a tad problematic, as we normally do everything through the Smartboard. Somehow we managed.
Honestly not that much tonight. As we get heavily into our review, that will change drastically.
remember to read!
Have a good one,
