We are ready to get this week started. Last week, we learned SO much, and took our first summative math assessment. Your kids worked hard. We’re using that momentum as we push into a more rigorous unit on place value including decimal and fractional values, and understanding decimal and fraction values in relationship to powers of 10.
In science, we will continue to better understand the brightness in starlight and how that relates to the star’s distance form the earth.
I met with all of the students who come to me in the morning about their math assessment last week. That rubric and their reflection went home on Friday. Those who see me in the afternoon will bring their rubrics and reflections home tonight or tomorrow night. I’ll make sure to post in dojo so that you know they are coming. Please encourage them to celebrate their successes, as this is a year long learning cycle. We must master all of these skills by the end of 5th grade, and 5th grade just started.
We can see that you are encouraging your student to work through those more challenging concepts in science and math and it helps their mindset in the classroom so much!
