We are back to a regular schedule for a little bit. Yay! The field trips were amazing, but I know kids like to know what to predict more regularly. We are now resuming homework and regular math classwork. You can review these notices and also homework assignments on my website http://www.mrmacnevin.com. Students can find answers to the work we are doing on the site http://files.mrmacnevin.com.
Math
- We are coming to a close on the focus on our latest learning target: I can write an equation to represent a set of data or a situation.
- Today in class we have another problem involving writing equations and we are also going to have some homework to practice that skill.
- Tomorrow night we will have a practice quiz for homework.
- Friday we will have a quiz on this learning target.
- NEXT week we will begin our next learning target 5: I can evaluate algebraic equations. We've been working on this one most of the year, so there won't be much new to introduce. The unit finishes up with a last learning target 6: I can solve 1-step algebraic equations. More will come home next week about that. It is a skill in algebra that we probably all heard described as "isolating the variable" in order to solve for it.
Science
- We are correlating our rock samples this week to demonstrate that the layers of rock in the grand canyon are all large layers that spread out over large swaths... they are not just layers in the cliff wall.
I hope the weather holds out! It's so nice to be out of the La Nina years, finally!
Sincerely,
Brian MacNevin
