I only have 4 people that signed up to order a lunch for the field trip! PLEASE don't forget to bring your lunch, if you did not sign up to buy one! We are eating early, as we won't be back till 1:30.
Math
I've made study guides for modeling each type of decimal multiplication problem that will make these problems EASY. (You are welcome! : ) I will make those available on Edmodo Monday.

Tuesday- (We will have math before our Field Trip!) Multiplication of larger decimals (computation with partial product and algorithm)
Wednesday- (Special Math with small groups!) How are products different?!? We will explore fractions, decimals, whole and mixed numbers to discover the answer!
Thursday- (Early Release Day) Multiplication of larger decimals with emphasis on word problems
Friday- Assessment- 5 questions on addition and subtraction of decimals, and 10 questions on multiplication of decimals including models.

Social Studies
Monday - We have aTest on Wednesday! I know you are ready, but here are some ideas to help you study:
Use your newspapers! 4-5-6-7 and 8 all have articles will be helpful. I have one set in order to grade an assignment, so you can use Clever to see a digital copy. Log in as a student, and use your 365 account. You should be able to see Studies Weekly, but if you experience problems, I will give back your papers on Monday. Brainpop video clips on any of these topics are also a great review. (We'll be going back over these in class!)
