Math: FASTT Math, Rounding. A Topic 3 assessment will occur next week for most students.
Science: Chapter 4, Lesson 1 completed; Lesson 2 begun
Literacy block: Rotations and writing conferences occurred during class. Handwriting, Friday, Week 13 is homework AND is an assessment. Target: define words using knowledge of prefixes and suffixes. We did the first one together as a class. For example, if they are asked to define "unhappy," they would write "not happy" to show that they know the prefix "un-" means "not."

Math: Due to an unexpected network outage, we changed our plans a little today. We played some very challenging number games. Lots of good thinking going on!
Science: Chapter 4, Lesson 1 TRL was discussed in class. The Lesson 1 review was completed by most students. Some will need to finish it tonight.
Literacy block: We looked at group work with Noun-Verb-Noun sentences. The students then wrote 5 sentences of their own using this pattern for an assessment. We continued with writing conferences and rotations. Handwriting, Week 13, Thursday is due tomorrow. We discussed Friday's handwriting homework. It will be an assessment, and it tests whether or not students can use prefixes and suffixes to define words.
