Math - pgs 231 & 232 and an extra worksheet for your group (Today we worked on interpreting the remainder....what does the remainder mean in a word problem. Please keep practicing multiplication flashcards at home as we will be doing a lot of multiplication in the next few weeks.)
 
Science -  Bubis only - Isaac Newton pgs 85 - 101 in book and questions in packet if not done in class and D.O.S. has been passed out and due on Friday (Today we read pages 85 - 101 and finished the book on Isaac Newton before we begin the unit on Force in our text books. We also worked on finishing the comprehension packet. Ask your child what they learned about him so far in todays reading. Tomorrow, my class will work on this as well.)
 
Social Studies - pgs 154 - 161 in textbook and all questions if not finished in class and D.O.G. has been passed out and due by Friday (Today we read about slavery in the Americas and what the impact was of slavery was on African people. Ask your child to give you some facts they learned in todays reading. West Africans were a target for slavery. Many spoke multiple languages, practiced different religions and told stories and fables to one another. They also had many jobs in the villages and some were traders, but yet many were taken as slaves and disrupted their lives and villages. We also worked on another 50 states worksheet to prepare for our 50 states test on November 17th. They must spell the states correctly and make sure they are all capitalized too. If not, they will lose a 1/2 point on each one written incorrectly. They will have a word bank on the day of test, so they have to copy carefully and correctly.)
