FIRST IN MATH

Our class is now registered on First in Math, a website based off of the game "24". The user name and password your child brought home on Friday 3/13 gives them access to the site until July 31, 2009, so they can practice their basic skills and even get ahead for next year (the site tackles fractions, integers,and even algebra). The site can be accessed from any computer, so encourage your child to use the program. The top five sticker holders as of 4/29/09 are:

1. Eden 2,751
2. Ben Sh. 2,657
3. Megan 1,239
4. Grant 1,186
5. Caley 1,175

In the Classroom:  

  • Students are studying archetypal patterns in fiction text, and we are starting to draft our own fictional story with archetypal patterns and characters 
  • In Math, we're practicing finding the LCM and GCF in preparation for FRACTIONS! Keep on that nightly homework!


Book Reports!!  Don't forget that you have a book report due on the last day of every month.  If you usually read Realistic Fiction, change it up this month and read a Poetry book or Nonfiction book for your book report.   (See link below for the format.)


****THERE IS NO BOOK REPORT FOR APRIL - JUST THE INVENTION CONVENTION REPORT***
