I hope everyone had a great weekend playing in the snow.
Homeroom~
Could you check and see if you have received the NP newsletter? Send me an email if you haven't gotten one in the last week or so and I will make sure that your email is added to the list. You may want to check spam and junk mail folders as well...
Language Arts~
This week we are reading "Dear Mrs. LaRue: Letters from Obedience School." Anyone who has a dog that makes bad choices can identify with this story about a dog with an excuse for everything. Our comprehension skills for the week are generating questions and drawing conclusions. Our vocabulary for the week includes these words: neglected, appreciated, risks, bluffing, misunderstood, desperate, endured, and obedience. Our vocabulary skill is prefixes. Our spelling words focus on endings and our grammar skill is pronouns. I will add our RIT words tomorrow.
There is homework this week. Check those backpacks. Book orders are due tomorrow.
Math~
Today our skill was probability. We discussed how likely we were to pull certain cards from a deck of cards. We learned that we can express the probability mathematically as a fraction by putting the number of desirable outcomes over the number of possible outcomes.
Homework was study link and math boxes 7.3. Only a few students were still working on this at then end of class
Science (Grannan)~
Today we cleaned up some left over science morning work packets. We will get back to magnets on Wednesday.
No homework.
