Feb. 8


*Friday we are having a Valentine's Celebration, not actually a party.  Please do not send candy with your students, your child may bring cards for everyone. I will have a treat for them all. Thank you!

Math: Wednesday - test on our types of Graphs unit.  Students will be expected to answer questions about Frequency tables, bar graphs, stem and leaf plots, dot plots, and scatter plots.  Please feel free to visit old posts for video links for review.  Starting Thursday we will cover 2D shapes and their attributes.  Students need to fully understand what a polygon is and what it isn't, how to classify triangles and quadrilaterals based on common attributes.  Here are a couple of videos:

Social Studies: This week students will work on their Industrial Revolution project.  Friday they were assigned an invention from that era.  Students will research it and how it impacted society/technology and our economy.  They will then create an advertisement for their product.  These projects are due this Friday.
