Curriculum Updates:

In math students will have their mid-module assessment Wednesday. This will include multiplying with powers of ten, decimal in word, standard and expanded form, comparing and ordering decimals and rounding decimal numbers. Students brought home a study guide today as well as a practice page for rounding on a vertical number line. I'm attaching a video below if students need extra practice or review at home. 



In Social Studies we are extending our work with the Bill of Rights to explore the process for amending the Constitution. Students brought home the study guide for their assessment on Friday today. We will be working with this study guide throughout the week to ensure they are ready.




This may look like chaos, but students are actually doing a great job of comparing and ordering decimals numbers and creating order in the classroom!
