Feb 3-7

February is Black History Month

Math
- marks are available in PowerSchool for the Percent Quiz last week
- students made corrections on the Percent Quiz
- we practiced ordering and placing decimal, fraction, percent and ratio numbers accurately on a number line
- students built Frayer models of equivalent representations of decimal numbers.

Science
- the Oreo cookie (plate boundary) Lab was due Monday
- we completed an activity called Finding the Epicenter - using triangulation to locate the epicenter of an earthquake.
- The class generated a list of vocabulary related to the Planet Earth unit. Each student was assigned one of these words to complete as a vocabulary assignment. The page must include the word, a picture or diagram, the definition, and a quote or sentence containing the word.


We continued this Friday with RTI, focusing on skill development in reading comprehension for Literacy and place value and decimals in Numeracy. Ask your student about this amazing learning opportunity.
