Happy Labor Day!
I hope everyone enjoyed the unofficial last weekend of summer. This week in 5th grade we will be continuing our place value/decimals and sounds units. Students will be comparing and ordering numbers out to the thousandths place (and beyond for a challenge). Students will use the mathematical symbols > (greater than), < (less than), and = (equal to). In science, students will learn about sound waves, the parts of a sound wave, pitch, and volume.
We have a new homework menu for Quint 2. Many of the options are the same, but you can access the new one here. As a reminder, all attached pages in the homework menu are mandatory unless noted on the page. The menu options can be used if you did not complete the 90 minutes for the week.
Permission slips went home on Friday for an Arts Department field trip to the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum on Wednesday, September 11. Students will be walking there and eating lunch at the school. The trip is free. Permission slips should be returned to me on or before Friday, September 5.
MAP Testing will be taking place over the next two weeks. Grades 1 and 2 will be testing this week. We will begin testing grades 3, 4, and 5 next week. Students will take 3 tests - Math, Reading, and Language Use.
