Dec 1-5

 Literacy:

Students worked together to mark a pretend student's procedural writing task based on a 4 point rubric. They then decided what the "next steps" would be for the pretend student. Finally, students wrote a better version of the text in their notebooks. 

Math:

Basic Facts: Lots of parents asked for some resources to practice multiplication and division at home. Here is a link for some worksheets to print off. Here is a link for online flashcards. You can also just use a note book to practice writing inverse equations to build connections between multiplication and division. For example,  3x3=9 and 9➗3=3 

We continued working on adding and subtracting decimals. This week we focused on word problems and practicing different ways to show our thinking.
