I continue to be amazed and how quickly the days fly by.....
Homeroom:
We continued to find resources in order to do our D.O.G. It's due Friday A.M.
Language Arts:
We reviewed our RIT words by writing examples on the white boards. We continued reviewing last years Greek and Latin roots during Vocab Vine. In Spelling, we reviewed the meanings of our spelling words and in Grammar we reviewed the proper punctuation for the 4 types of sentences. Our reading focused on characters and plot. Specifically we talked about how the events in the plot of a story help us learn about the characters. We also visited with our 1st grade reading buddies today. We are looking forward to a year long friendship with our first grade friends.
Math:
Today we worked on the divisibility rules. This is a hard concept for 5th graders. Some of the rules are easy. Even numbers are divisible by 2, Numbers that end in zero are divisible by10 and 5. Others are more difficult. The rules for 3s, 6s, and 9s involve multiple steps. The rules are listed on today's study link. Please review them with your child. We will review them again in the coming days and throughout the year. Homework is Study Link 1.5
Health:
Today our focus was on uncomforatble feelings. Test will be next Tuesday.
