Happy Wednesday!! I will be at Lindbergh cleaning my classroom most of the day today, so I apologize if there is a delay in my response. I will be home in the afternoon and will respond then!

Here is a look at today:

Writing

-Keep working on your Narrative Final copy. Remember to split up the work and pace yourself throughout the week. The videos are longer so you might want to break them up into two days. The final copy is due Friday. However, next week Monday is a “catch up” day where I am allowing late work to be turned in.

Math

We are doing our last math lesson today! It is lesson 2 for Module 6. We are renaming mixed numbers as decimals. It is important to make sure that you are putting the WHOLE number before the decimal point.
Assignment:
1. Optional. Watch the Eureka math video while trying the homework, check it with the answer key.

Dear Parents,

As the school year is coming to an end, we wanted to take this time to thank you for all of your continued support and understanding.  None of what we have accomplished could have been possible without the strong partnership we have as a community.  

Our plan this week is to have a day for material pick-up and drop-off.  The day is currently planned for Thursday, June 4th in the afternoon.  In order to maximize safety, we have assigned timings based on your child’s last name.  If your child’s last name begins with the letter A-M, the pick-up/drop-off time will be from 12:00-1:30pm.  If your child’s last name begins with the letter N-Z, the pick-up/drop-off time will be from 1:30-3:00pm.

We ask that students do not accompany adults and that we practice safety precautions at all times.  Please plan on coming with a mask on, practice social distancing and come in to pick up items and leave immediately.  We greatly appreciate your support in keeping everyone safe and healthy.

Below are a few important pieces of information to be aware of:

  • Pick-up/Drop-off will occur on the South Playground (near Myrte).  
  • There will be an area marked for each classroom teacher.  Student materials have been placed in brown paper bags and extra material in a plastic bag ready for pick up with your child’s name.  There will also be a basket with the teacher’s name there for you to drop off any classroom books/materials.  These items should be placed in a bag, clearly marked with your child’s name.  Please remember, some students have lots of items, so come prepared.  
  • In the lot, there will also be bins for you to drop-off:
    • library books
    • musical instruments
    • safety belts
    • service squad pins

Please clearly mark your child’s name on these items by either placing them in a bag or using a piece of masking tape.  

  • There will also be a table to pick up your child’s medicine, anything left will be disposed of according to policy.
  • If you have been collecting pop tabs, we will also have the box outside to collect those pop-tabs.
  • Yearbooks and Spring Pictures have come in, there will be a table set up for those.  5th graders will get their yearbook in their promotion bags.

Since this will all occur outside, we are hoping that the weather cooperates.  If things change, we will let you know.  

Have a wonderful day!

Ms. Tiba

Happy Monday and first day of June!! I hope you had a restful weekend.

Here is a look at today:

Writing

-Please make sure to turn in your Narrative Writing Plan today! We will be taking this plan and making a final story this week.

Math

-We are going doing two lessons only this week (Monday, Wednesday). Friday will be reserved for videos and online math games.
Also- we are going to take take a break from Module 5 and fractions and focus this last week on Module 6, which is decimals.

**I have changed everyone’s Zearn to Module 6 so you can practice with the current lesson we are on**
Assignment:
Changing fractions to decimal points using tenths is the main goal today!
1. Watch the Eureka math video while trying the homework and check with the answer key! This is optional, although I suggest watch the Eureka math video along with the Great Minds video today. It is short and good when learning a new module.
