Week of January 14, 2019

Happy Monday Everyone,

     Students are bringing home 2nd quarter report cards today. All of the papers on the inside of the envelope are yours to keep. Please sign the envelope where indicated and return it to school no later than Friday. 
      There is no school this Monday 1/21/19, there is no school due to the MLK Jr. holiday. Classes will resume on Tuesday. 

Monday 1/14/19 Report Cards Come Home
Thursday 1/17/19 Science Test Unit 8 Heat
Friday 1/18/19 Timed Quizzes 2 minutes each
Monday 1/21/9 Martin Luther King Jr. Day--No School

     This week in math we will continue to decompose fractions. This week we will focus on equivalent fractions. We will start with models and work our way to using multiplication and division. To find an equivalent fraction you either multiply or divide a fraction equal to 1 whole (2/2, 3/3, 4/4 etc.)  by the fraction you were given. 

On Friday we will take our first timed quiz of the third nine weeks. Our time now moves to 2 minutes. Use the website below for some fun practice.


     This week in science we will finish our work on heat energy. We will complete a lab on conductors on Tuesday and Wednesday. The test will be on Thursday. We will then finish our physical science study with forces and motion.

     This week in social studies we will continue the tug of war that Florida went through. When we finished chapter 4 we learned that at the end of The American Revolution the British had to give control of Florida back to Spain. How long will Spain keep control of Florida? Read chapter 5 to find out. 

Have a Fantastic Week,

Ms. Johnson
