MATH

LANUGAGE

Today we did a round of Daily 5 in which students did word work, listen to reading, work on writing, and read to self. We also spent some time reading our in class novel study ‘It’s All Relative.’  I have started a reading logbook for the students. They are expected to read for at least 20 minutes everyday. They can record it in their reading log. Reading logs will be checked every Friday. The first one will be checked on Friday, January 15^th.

UOI

Today we used books on Forces and wrote out jot notes. We were paired up and given a specific book to read and review. We have about 3 more weeks of this unit, about a week to two weeks of lessons and a week to a week and a half of the summative. More information to come in the following weeks!

Have a great weekend!
