This morning, the students worked very hard on their Math patterning tests. My goal is to have the evaluated tests back to the students by Monday, at the latest.
When the students finished their work, they went on the chromebooks and used Dreambox. Some students have expressed a desire for more of a challenge, so I have raised the level of difficulty for the activities. I have encouraged the students to let me know if the tasks are too easy or too hard, so that I can continue to adjust the levels for individual students.
In Science, we continued to work on our skyscrapers. If possible, the students are encouraged to bring in cardboard to use on their structure.

The students will be bringing in a list of
Finally, in Language, we continued to work on the Google slides for our seasonal persuasive writing.

It was great to see so many of you yesterday at the interviews. Thank you for your great feedback, questions and suggestions. I look forward to working with you to ensure the success of your child throughout the year.
Have a great night.
Mr. Skinner
