- recognizing prime and composite numbers,
- listing factors and finding the GCF,
- listing multiples and finding the LCM, and
- finding the prime factorization of numbers.
On Thursday, we will begin our unit on basic fraction understanding, by making fraction strips to identify equivalent fractions.
In Science we will be wrapping up our Soil unit. We will first analyze our organic matter test and come to some conclusions regarding the soil from the school garden in Arizona. We will then look at some possible ways to fix the school garden and analyze other students' suggestions. We are also going to try to watch a video on the Dust Bowl so students get a good idea of the affects of weather and farming on soil in the central part of the U.S in the 1930's. Our unit test will take place next Monday, October 19th.
In Advisory students will continue working on their learning plan projects. I have met with about half of the students regarding the progress they've made so far. It is necessary for students to have whatever it is they are working on, in class, so when I meet with them, they can show me what they have done.
Other little updates -- please take note of the important dates listed to the right. On Tuesday and Thursday, students will be taking the Reading portion of the MEAP. On Friday, there will be no school due to Teacher Professional Development.

ReplyDeletemrs.perez, this question is not related to this blog but can we wear white,black,or red leggings to school.
ReplyDeleteAnanda, you can not wear the kind of leggings to school that are like pants, but you can wear leggings that are like tights that you wear under your skirt. If you do, they have to be all one color...not a mix of colors.
ReplyDeleteso i can wear the ones that stop in the middle of the ankle and knee under my s am i correct skirt
ReplyDeletekhaila spelled out wrong.
ReplyDeleteAnanda,
ReplyDeleteThe leggings must completely cover all of your legs, like tights would. If they do, you may wear them. If they don't, or if you are unsure, bring them to school and I will be able to check them out first before you wear them.
