In other news (and thank you to Nishaan-we learned that it stands for North, East, West, South-events spread out in every direction) it is mid January and time to recognize the progress and any difficulties in our learning as we enter into 3rd Marking Period February 3. We should be becoming more comfortable in doing multi-step problem solving, the Think Central multiple choice test structure and responding to given questions with text references. Continue referring to our rubrics and other references and examples in your GO TO folder, this website and class.
The following are the most recent content and skills we have been practicing to ask your child to explain:
* THE BIG 8- 45, 90, 135, 180, 225, 270, 315, 360 degrees to estimate acute, right and obtuse angles.
*Rectangular Shape Hand : LxW= Area You add up all the sides on the outside---That's Perimeter (these two are concepts that need to be master in the 3rd grade and recognized as measurements using different standard units)
*The Homophone Groove (Schooltube video available shortly)
* Going Into The Text..... To Get Information Out of It!
* Transition Mission
*We Shall Overcome Schoolwide singing- Peacemakers in Actions Presentations
MORE TO COME SOON!
