I feel like we are really starting to get into the swing of things with virtual learning. I think we (the students and myself) have finally figured out Big Ideas, the math app. We have been fortunate enough to have Jacob's mom, Ms. Waters, jump on our Meet a few times to help since she works with elementary math teachers at the district office.
Dry Erase Boards
If you child did not get a dry erase board from me, I still have some. I also have markers. We use the dry erase boards a lot and it is so much easier to see their answers on the boards than with paper and pencil.

Curriculum
Math- We will wrap up Chapter 1 in Big Ideas: Understanding Multiplication and Division with a test on Tuesday. Students are welcome to practice any problems in their math workbook that we didn't do in chapter 1 to review. We will also review on Monday. We will move to Chapter 2: Multiplication Facts and Strategies.
ELA- In writing, we will continue to focus on personal narratives. In reading, we will wrap up using context clues with a graded assignment towards the beginning/middle of the week. We will also discuss questioning before, during and after our reading, making predictions and drawing conclusions.
Science- We will jump back into science midweek focusing on food chains including producers, consumers and decomposers.
Social Studies-We continue focusing on maps and the students will have a quiz on Wednesday.
*I will include the Week At A Glance in your child's Google Classroom on Monday that will include when graded assignments for the week will take place.
