"Everything is blooming most recklessly; if it were voices instead of colors, there would be an unbelievable shrieking into the heart of the night."
- Rainer Maria Rilke
We began Unit 9 in math this morning. Students practiced their multiplication facts by playing Product Pile-Up in groups of three. Other lessons this week include using mental math steps to multiply problems involving larger factors, solving number stories by multiplying and dividing with multiples of 10, working with elapsed time and exploring polygon relationships. Students will have a Home Link each night for homework.
Our spelling rule this week focuses on contractions. Students will have a spelling assignment on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. Please help your child study for the test on Thursday night.
Students will write their first journal entry for immigration this week. They will work with their families to create authentic journal entries to describe their experiences leaving their homeland and traveling to America.
Have a lovely week! :)
