Phew! I have been at school for the last 2 days cleaning out desks and lockers. “Yikes” is all I have to say! Currently, everything is in the lockers in bags. When Ms. Tiba gets the green light, she will let us know when you will be able to retrieve your child’s things.

View this week’s mini-lesson LIVE on Thursday!

In case you missed it, Mystery Doug invites you to another
LIVE SCIENCE SHOW. Doug is excited to answer kids’ questions with the help of astronaut Jessica Meir, who filmed videos for us while she was in space! (Seriously!)

Make this part of your lesson plans.
If you haven’t already shared this with families, forward this email to invite them.

Dear Parents – I feel there is some confusion with the Reading assignments. Two of the reading sites that we use in many grades at Lindbergh are separate sites from Google Classroom. They are:

Readworks.org and Raz Kids (www.kidsa-z.com)

They ARE NOT connected to Google Classroom. The students submit their work right on those websites. We had been using Readworks all year in class. There is no need to press TURN IN on Google Classroom for those 2 sites. I put directions on Google Classroom, but for those 2 sites, I direct you to go to those websites.

As I put on the Progress Reports, please read this blog first, THEN go to Google Classroom and read the directions carefully with each assignment.

This week is a short week! No school on Friday, May 22 or Monday, May 25. We will have 2 Math assignments this week that will be due by Thursday, May 21.

New Today: Math – both grades, Social Studies both grades, Reading – everyone.

Math 3rd Grade – Lesson 16 – Due Wed.

Math 4th Grade – Lesson 19 – Due Wed.

Social Studies – Go to Google Classroom Social Studies both Grades. Find May 18 – Price and Competition. This week, Mrs. Hull put in our lesson. It includes a video to watch and some reading from the 4th grade On Line Social Studies Book. She included a link to the book, but 3rd graders also have this book on Google Classroom – it is called “Social Studies Book.” (NOT the Michigan studies book.) Please read the directions carefully for this assignment. Due Thursday, May 21.

Reading: On the site Readworks.org, there is an article called Spring Into Poetry. I extended the due date to Thursday. Please read and answer the questions on that site, then students press submit. There is NO NEED to press Turn In on Google Classroom for this story.
