Happy Tuesday!!

Great day today in Room 6. We got lots done besides our 2nd MAP test. Tomorrow is our last one in Math. I am glad the kids are working hard and doing their best. We started Hurricanes in Science today. We watched part of a YouTube video. Ask your child 3 things they learned about hurricanes from it and if they can tell you, write hurricane in the planner. Montana History Quiz on Thursday. It is going to be on the symbols & statehood of Montana. They can take their notebooks home if they wish to study. In Social Studies, we studied the 7 continents and now we are learning the hemispheres. Ask them about the 2 imaginary lines that divide the Earth in 1/2. Writing today: We made writing card that resembled something today. Ask them what it is and if they can tell you, write it in the planner. Hint: it has 3 colors and we use it everyday. Have a discussion with them about why we are using this for our writing and how it is going to help us organize it. They might not be real clear on this yet, but it is worth a try. In Math, we decided decimals today. This concept is a bit difficult, but I told them not to worry about it yet as some were a bit lost & frustrated. We will practice-practice-practice. Ask them to tell you about the book we read today in Character Building on Trustworthiness. Also, ask them where we are in the Journey of Fallen Rock book. Have a great night and again remember testing points-good night sleep -protein breakfast/snack.
