Class activities for Monday, November 30
Spelling: None today.
Cursive: Cursive pp. 28-30 are available in class and due on Friday.
Reading: Students started the first Literature Circles reading day today, and we’ll finish the remainder of the day on Wednesday.
Writing: We started prewriting for our next piece of writing, also a fiction story. Students started planning the problem of the story and how it would be solved. We talked about having the characters try around three ways to solve the problem. That gives the story more action and it won’t feel so rushed compared to a story in which the characters solve the problem on the first try.
A fiction story will be due Friday, December 18.
Math: Students continued to practice rounding and place value skills today using MobyMax Math.
Here are some skills we’ve been working on lately:
Homework is to practice MobyMax Math or Khan Academy for at least 15 minutes.
Science: Students worked on a district assessment about electrical conductors and insulators.
Social Studies: We continued working on our Market Day website today, getting it ready for Market Day on December 3.
