(Over,Up)

Just remember over and up or x and y. When working on ordered pairs go over and up.  Remember, over and up!  There is always one question on the test.  It can be the easiest question to answer if you just remember over and up.

Please make sure the back of the math homework is completed.  These are problems that will help prepare your son or daughter for the math achievement test.  I remind them often to make sure that they show their work in the box.  Anything outside the box will not be counted. 

Here's a fun activity we'll be using to make sure that we go over and up!

Dogs and Circuits

Last week the students explored circuits.  Mr. Hanes was in to help out.  He showed the students how to increase the speed of the fan by connecting two batteries. 

This week the students researched different types of dogs.  They have to decide which dog is the best fit for their family.

Descriptive Writing

Last week we wrote descriptive paragraphs about hearts.  They did a terrific job describing them. 

Don't Eat the Candy!

We had some fun in math on Thursday!  We worked in groups to complete several activities with the candy hearts.  Students need to be able to construct a graph with the correct labels.  The trickiest part on the test is actually making the graph that is being asked of them.  Often times they will make the last one that we practiced in class.

We had a fun party.  Decorating shirts is always fun.  I'll get some pictures of the shirts next week!  Thank you for helping out at the party and sending items in. 

Decimals and Multiplication

Last week we worked on decimals.  Here's a little project we did after our PowerPoint lesson.

We've been working on learning our multiplication facts.  Here are a few activities we've worked on!

This week we'll continue to work on decimals and multiplication.
