Hi guys!! I hope you all had a great weekend. One really nice thing about all this is how much time we can spend at home with our families, working on projects, and just enjoying the little things.
TODAY we are having a live chat at 11:30 AM! I’ll post the link here to Zoom around that time and you will just click on it and join us. Not required, we are just going to hang out 🙂
I wanted to link the daily calendar again, make sure to scroll down to Week 2! Woo!! We are doing great. Seriously, you all should be proud of yourselves for taking charge of your learning. When you get back to school, you will be so happy you kept your brains working while we were off. Keep it up:)
For reading today- read 30 minutes and respond in your journal using the strategy on the calendar. You have a ReadWorks on the Supreme Court.
Math – Lesson 16. Recommended math time should look like this: Zearn, including the tutorial. Watch the video below while doing the problem set, then attempt the homework. DON’T STRESS ABOUT IT BEING PERFECT! 🙂 I will continue to post the homework solutions too for your parents and you.
Science- Please make sure your PBL art project is being worked on/will be ready when we get back to school. Don’t worry about the writing or food chain, we will finish that together when we get back….
If you want to do a fun extra credit project, I am linking the ecosystem diorama instructions below!! My students have loved creating these in the past, and so do I. In fact, I may make one!
ONLY use materials around the house and outside. No one needs to go to the store!! Use an old shoe box or box of a similar size. Other items you can use that you have at home: construction paper, magazine or newspaper pictures, leaves or grass from outside, old plastic toy animals (if you ask permission!), cotton balls, marshmallows, rocks, Playdough, toothpicks, paper towel rolls, pipe cleaners, anything goes!! See how creative you can get. The best part about these projects will be that none of us went to Michael’s or anywhere to buy things- we did it all from things in the house, quarantine style 🙂
I hope to see and hear you guys at 11:30 in the chat!
