Thursday, December 14, 2023 Homework
Christmas Show is tonight - Thursday, December 14 at 6:30pm in the Church. All students must arrive to their classroom by 6pm. Parent's please try to take your child's jacket at drop off to the school. It's one less thing for us to worry about. Also, pick up is at end of performance in Church by coming up to me and checking them out. Thank you and looking forward to the show. Please see Mr. Showstead's email from a week ago letting you know proper attire to wear. Thank you.
Math - None (Today we started learning how to multiply decimals by other decimals. Example: 2.5 x 3.2 - We also multiplied decimals by the powers of 10 with a very simple trick I taught them. Example: 5.35 x 100 = 535 - All work and practice was done in class with me today. Please keep practicing multiplication flashcards at home as we will be doing a lot of multiplication in the next few weeks.)
Science - None (Today I lectured about the test and the students all took hand written notes. These hand written notes can be used on their test tomorrow. Our Chapter 2 test is tomorrow.)
Social Studies - None, but D.O.G. due tomorrow (Today we read about the Vietnam War, which was a subject area the students wanted to learn about and I was able to fit into my lesson plans for this week. They had to read chapters 9, 10, & 11. Then they answered the questions in the comprehension packet which also asked them to tell me what page they found the answer on....this is a very important concept to provide me with evidence of their answers.)
Reminders:
- I offer office hours Monday - Thursday if your child needs me to reteach something in Math, Science or Social Studies. Please email me for assistance and we will meet via google meet link.
- I offer afterschool Math group tutoring on Thursday's of every week until 3:15pm. Some weeks we review and some weeks we go ahead and learn the next lessons. We will also work on strengthening our math facts in multiplication. It is $30 per week if you'd like to join. You can come and go from week to week, but it is very beneficial. Contact me with any questions.
- Amazon wish list, if you can donate to our classroom... https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3RS691H76HBK0?ref_=wl_share
