Class activities for Tuesday, May 25
Spelling: Students completed a spelling and skill test today.
Cursive: Ten cursive sentences, seven or more words each, are due on Fridays.
Reading: Today was a reading day in Literature Circles.
Writing: Students worked on finalizing their partner and their question for their Find It, Decide It project. Here are the guidelines. Here’s the discussion so far:
Math: We reviewed solving multiplication and division number stories. We also talked about how to make sense of the remainder of a division problem, starting with turning the remainder into a fraction. Homework is to finish Journal p. 156, problems 1-4, and p. 158.
Science: None today due to extra time with Social Studies.
Social Studies: We reviewed for tomorrow’s test over economics.
