*Math –We will continue our unit on measurement this
week. We are learning about metric and customary units
of measurement and converting measurement. This week
we will be doing assignments in Freckle and end the week
with a Digital Escape Room. If you have your Math book,
you can also use it to help you if needed. The standards
for this unit are 4.MD.1 & 4.MD.2.
* Reading – Students will be reading an Article a Day
and writing about it. It should only take about 10-15
minutes. They will also have their ReadWorks passage.
We will begin our new read aloud, A Long Walk to Water. I
will be reading 2 chapters on our Zoom meetings. Please
try to attend so you can take notes. If you can’t attend the
Zoom, I will post the recording in Edmodo. I cannot post it
on my blog since I am reading someone else’s book.
* Writing/ELA – We will finish working on Relative
Pronouns this week. Students will be choosing one of their
prompts to submit as a grade. They may edit and revise
before submitting.
* Science– We will continue our unit on Water and
Weather. Our focus this week will be on clouds and
precipitation. We will have a quiz on Thursday.
I cannot believe we only have 3 ½ more weeks left of
school. I do feel like we have been doing this digital
learning for A LONG TIME! I miss seeing everyone in
person and cannot stand not being there to teach you
guys.
I had so much fun on the Zoom today! We did a
Scavenger Hunt! It was my comic relief to watch
everyone scramble to find things. Students that
participated in the Zoom Friday do not have to do the
Article of the Day Assignments next week.
There are just a few students still missing work. Please
try to work on this so you can start fresh on Monday.
Please see the Spirit Days for next week. It will be
called Hope Week.
Also, don’t forget about the Student Council letter
Zoom sessions will be on Monday,
Wednesday, and optional check in on Fridays
from 10-10:30 Link is posted on Edmodo.
I will be available through email, Class Dojo,
or Edmodo to answer questions.
You can check the STEM, PE, Art, and Music
blog for some great activities they have
(maybe on the day we would have that
special).
Target students make sure you are checking
your Target teacher’s blog. Monday
Reading/ELA/Writing & Vocab assignments are
optional for you. I would like for you to try to
still do the Math and Science activities.
If your child is on Symphony Math- they
should also be getting on that regularly.
You may also do the FlipGrid Challenge each
day or any of the extra sites in Clever.
