  81 (refer to lesson 8)

                        Also: Workbook page 89#2 and 3

Science 5A/B: I know this looks like a lot, but most of you have finished a few of these already:

1.  Check Google Classroom to make sure  you have finished, proofread, and turned in your Animal Research Notes and your Ecosystem Research Notes.  
2. Finish planning your diorama. 
3. START searching  for and  print two sets of images of animals  that you can use in your diorama and  food chain/web.

5. Start gathering any recyclable or natural materials you want to add to your diorama.  See the attached list for ideas and limitations. You will not need to bring this in until Wednesday. 

Study each workbook page lesson summary, then copy out an assortment of 5 different problems from each of the worksheets. Be sure to choose the problems that you need the most practice with! Also, se the problem numbers from the page, so you can check them later. In essence, you will be creating your own customized worksheet just for your needs:)  Solve the problems, then check them against your answer sheet. Then you will know what you need to work on some more to prepare for the test  to study. Also, if you have questions, ask me in the morning:)  Show me this tomorrow as your page 38-39 alternative. Please be sure to SHOW ALL WORK! 



Monday 10/19

Math B- Study for tomorrow's Ch 2 math test and complete these problems on page 38-39 (14-16), (20-21), (28-30), (34-39), (48-53)

Math A/B Reminder: Students should be studying every day, Monday-Thursday. So far in class, I have given students 3 different ways to study that should take less than 20 minutes a day, including completing any assigned problems. Here is a review of 3 ways to study:

1) When you have problems assigned in the workbook  for homework: Reread the top of the workbook page before you begin the assignment so that you are practicing the right way and getting in some studying time. 

2)  When we go over assignments in class, students are instructed to use pen to to circle any incorrect answers , write the correct answer, and write any other notes they need about how to sovle the problem, all right there on the workbook page. When you go home, write the problems you got wrong out on  a separate sheet of paper, reread the lesson summary on the top of the workbook page, try the problems again and check it against your answer key. 

3) If I do not assign any problems for homework or simply ask you to "study" here is what I mean: Reread the top of each workbook page in the chapter that you have completed so far, then copy 2-4 problems out (not answers) from the page on a separate sheet of paper. Solve the problems and check your answers against the answer key (your previously completed and checked worksheet.) This will immediatley let you know if you are approaching the problem correctly, and if not, you can reread and start over. If you still can't solve the problem correctly, when you come to school the next day, ask me to explain it to you.

In Religion, students finished their research projects on Thursday. They are on the bulletin board. At this point, if you have not been in class, please make sure you have formatted your work correctly (font: Times New Roman, Size 12, Double Spacing, title should be center aligned, and the first line of each paragraph should be indented by using the tab key.) Also, make sure you have used correct spelling, capitalization, and punctuation.

Tuesday 9/29: 

We are looking for just one class parent for each class this year. If either one of your parents or guardians are interested in being a class parent, please ask him/her to email me jiasso5607@saintmaryschoolei.org. 

Math A/B - Gently take out the chapter 2 pages from your workbook (remember how we learned to pull out only 2 or 3 pages at a time). Once you have pulled them out,  make sure they are in order, then staple them at the top. Place this chapter 2 packet in your blue folder so it comes to school every day with you. You can remove the he Chapter 1 packet. It would be a good idea to store Chapter 1 tucked inside of your workbook, but not required. 

Start a Math Notebook page for Lesson 2-1 and just complete the Math Word for TEXTBOOK page 24

Science A/B - finish the hypothesis page that we started in class today. Remember all must be written in the if...then format.
