Reminders...

Front Row:
I assigned some lessons on Front Row.  When you log into Front Row, choose The Number System, then select Assigned Practice instead of adaptive practice.  Choose lesson 8.  I will also give extra tickets for any lesson you complete on Front Row from the adaptive practice.  Remember we are working on Ratios and Proportions, The Number System or Numbers in Base Ten.

Learn Zillion:
You will receive 2 extra tickets for every assigned lesson you complete before January 13th.

Lexia:
Continue using Lexia at home. Your goal is to finish the program as soon as possible. Congratulations to the student (Z) who has already completed the program! :)

AR:
Your goal is to finish a chapter book by January 13th, so you can kick off the 3rd quarter by taking a quiz and earning some points. You need to be reading every day, or you will find that your reading level will go down. If you don't use it, you lose it!

Science Project:
Your science project is due on January 15th. Be sure to be working on it while you are off. It's coming up fast!

Woo hoo!

We met our AR goal, so tomorrow after 2nd recess, we will have the pleasure of watching our principals gobble up some crunchy and "delicious" insects!

Updates

Science Fair:
At this point, students should be completed with their experiment and be constructing their science boards. Science projects are due January 15th at 9:15 a.m.

AR:
We only need 26 more points to reach our goal! :)

AR Update

Our Goal: 3,600 points

So Far We've Earned: 2,912 points

We NEED: 688 points to reach our goal!

Learn Zillion and Front Row Extra Practice

Are you struggling with positive and negative fractions and decimals and locating them on the numberline?  I have assigned several videos to complete on LearnZillion to help you out.  I also assigned some lessons on Front Row.  When you log into Front Row, choose The Number System, then select Assigned Practice instead of adaptive practice.  Choose lesson 8.  Receive 2 extra tickets for each lesson you complete by the end of Winter Break on January 13.  I will also give extra tickets for any lesson you complete on Front Row from the adaptive practice.  Remember we are working on Ratios and Proportions, The Number System or Numbers in Base Ten.

AR Challenge Update

Our Goal: 3,600 points

So Far We've Earned: 2,606 points

We NEED: 994 points to reach our goal!

We are getting closer! :)

1st Semester AR Challenge Update

Our Goal: 3,600 points

So Far We've Earned: 2,560 points

We NEED: 1,040 points to reach our goal!

1,040 points need to be earned by the 6th grade classes before December 18th. Homework these next two weeks will include much more independent reading, and less worksheets, so that students have the opportunity to make up those points.

Come on students! Let's see our principals eat some bugs! Crunch, crunch, yum! ;)

Science Fair Projects

By this time, students should be working on gathering results on their experiment. Please be sure to ask your student about the experiment they chose, and help them stay on track. Feel free to email me if there are any questions. My email can be found above on the "Contact Mrs. MacQueen" tab.
