Please turn in the Check My Progress 1-4 and Check My Progress 5-7 by Sunday, May 3, 2020.

If I were teaching this unit in school I would have students take pictures on iPads of shapes in the classroom, create shapes out of recycled items, and draw shapes on scrap paper.  The extra resources in OneDrive are for students who need extra practice and for those who need enrichment.

Social Studies:

This week we are going to explore the continent of Asia because one of the characters in our reading story is from Japan.  We will also be looking at different landforms.  I have put a lot of books on continents and landforms in your child's mailbox on Epic. 

This website is a great place for learning about Asia.



Please read the following articles on Asia and landforms on Pebble Go.

Science:

We are learning about the phases of the moon.  Please complete the activity on OneDrive.

Please watch these videos on the phases of the moon.







We've also been reading books on plant parts in our small groups.  These books are on Epic.  We've read Exploring Seeds, Exploring Flowers, Exploring Leaves, and today we will read Exploring Stems and Exploring Roots during Table Talks. (April 29).

Please make a diagram of a plant and label the flower, stem, leaves, roots, and soil.  Please write three facts about plants on your diagram.  Please turn in your diagram by Sunday, May 3, 2020.

I will continue to record books for my YouTube channel.  Please refer to last week's posts for ways for your child to review math if needed.  Please let me know if you have any questions about our lessons.  I don't expect any child to complete every resource.  My goal is to give you a variety of tools so that all students' needs are met.  I will continue to assign books in Epic and RAZ Kids on our science and social studies objectives.  Please make sure your child takes at least 2 quizzes a week in RAZ Kids.  I will also start to give optional IXL work for science and social studies.  

In school I would be reminding them to not waste paper so please know I do not expect you to print every sheet.  

Items that I need turned in or completed will always be highlighted in purple

I miss your children very much and cherish my teaching opportunities with them more than you know.  

Have a blessed weekend!

Miss Deem
