Class activities for Tuesday, December 21
Spelling: None today.
Cursive: Ten cursive sentences of seven or more words each are due on Fridays. There is no cursive assignment this week.
Reading: We read two books about Hanukkah and the dreidel game, and we played the dreidel game. At tomorrow’s fiesta, we will be playing a very similar game called Toma Todo, which is a six-sided top compared to the four-sided dreidel. Special thanks to Dylan’s grandmother who provided the books, dreidels and gelt (Tootsie Rolls)!
Writing: None today due to technology.
Our next piece of writing, a fiction piece, will be due Wednesday, January 19.
Math: We reviewed calculating the sum of the interior angles of a polygon and students completed a MiniQuiz.
Science: We reviewed the clinical trial simulation experiment from yesterday. Homework is to finish the Analysis questions on pp. 14-15.
Social Studies: Students completed a test about routes of exploration.
