Math and Social Studies
Learning Targets
Math - We are currently working on elapsed time, which has proven to be very challenging for students. Today, students brought home their test that they took today. A blank copy of this test, with answers, is located here. Students did not do as well as planned on this test because they were not following the directions, and focusing on what each specific question asked. Please review this information with your child this weekend. The grade that was sent home, will NOT be put into the grade book. Instead, there will be a retake on Monday. This test on Monday, will be in the same format, but will come with different movie times and lengths.
Social Studies - We are currently working on westward expansion. As we look at westward expansion, I have noticed that our students have a varying degree of understanding related to the location of the 50 states. For this reason, we are also going to focus on map skills in the upcoming weeks. Students will take a "map quiz" each Friday, to build their understanding of the 50 states. There are many resources found under resources by subject area -> social studies-> map skills located on the right side of my blog. Here is the blank map students will get each Friday. Students will need to review this material each night for about 5 minutes.
