There is no other homework
for the weekend, unless you
owe assignments.
What’s happening this week in Mrs. Male’s Class?
**Our new reading textbook series is finally here! Preparing instruction from brand new material takes quite a bit of extra preparation
time, so I took a look to see where the students and I could ease up a bit on our pace. Math has been our most intense instructional area
so far. For this week (and possibly next week too), the students and I will complete ALMOST all ‘Daily Quiz/Notes’ assignments as inclass response lessons. This means that no written Math ‘Daily Notes’ are required this week– I will assess all on the spot during class
and plan individual reteaches as needed. All students are still responsible for #1-30 homework review, as usual. In next week’s
communicator, I will introduce the criterion for ‘Math Contract’ – stay tuned! Mrs. Male
First quarter ends in three weeks. I am looking forward to seeing you all during conference week!
Video clips to support this week’s lessons:
Monday Math: animation that illustrates how a fraction is built from a remainder and the divisor of a division problem.
