Science: We had a great time on the field trip! It certainly was the highlight of our science lessons. Next week we will be completing a mid-unit assessment. Students are well on their way to figuring out what happened to the moon jellies.
Literacy: It's been a very productive week. Students have been working diligently in class on their Art of Civil Disobedience essays. We have had Chrome Books available all week, so that students can type their work once the editing and revision processes are complete. The finished document, typed and printed, is due by the end of the school day on Monday, May 6th. All papers received after that date will be considered late. The Latin Unit 11 Mastery test is scheduled for Thursday, May 9th! Students need to be sure that they are studying that material, too!
English: Just a friendly reminder that final IRP projects are due Thursday, May 9th. An example has been posted to each Google Classroom. Badger students worked on a district common assessment this past week, which required them to read nonfiction and fictional excerpts. We continued with another nonfiction article in our Study Sync unit about the dangers of social media. This article yielded excellent discourse in class! Be sure to ask your student some of the topics we addressed together!
Math: We have covered histograms and box plots, now onto populations and samples. Student did a great job on their last quiz and we are flying through this unit! This week we will be learning how to determine the difference between a population and a sample. Using samples we will then learn how to select a sample and determine how to take a random sample. Our next test will be Friday, May 17th.
