Good Evening Haigh Families! I hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful weekend. It is a real glimpse of summer 🙂
Last week we learned a lot of information about tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, and wildfires
This week we will continue to work on our severe weather informational essay by finishing up the blueprint (Our plan for writing).
This week we will also continue with our NWEA testing. We will move onto math as soon as ELA is complete.
Last week in math we learned about solving multi-step word problems. We learned to solve these using the read-draw-write process. Students learned to read the problem, identify the question, and look for key words in the problem. I also encouraged them to draw a picture and cross off numbers they used to help them get to all of the steps. We will be having a quick quiz on Monday so it is a good idea to practice solving some this weekend. Students can refer to any problems not completed in their Learn or Succeed book from lessons 1-3. Students can also practice if they have yet to get to these lessons on Zearn.
Reminders for the Week:
- NWEA testing this week
- Math quiz on Monday
- Please be sure to send your child to school with a water bottle, the days are HOT!
- No school on Friday the 28th or Monday the 31st in observance of Memorial Day
- Head on over to Schoology under updates to get a copy of this week’s assignment sheet
Looking forward to a great week ahead 🙂
