Week of 1/30/23

 



Happy Monday Everyone,

     As you know, from Ms. Mattingly's email last week all school and classroom libraries cannot be accessed by students for the time being. All books must be screened and approved by a media specialist. Until that time students will not be allowed to borrow books from the JBE library or from the classroom libraries in mine or Mrs. Lomblo's classrooms. Students may bring in books from home to read while at school. While at school, students are not allowed to borrow or share books with each other. Hopefully the screening process will be quick and we can get back to reading and sharing our favorite books soon. Thank you for your support through this process.

In unit 11 we will learn how to multiply fractions and whole numbers. In this unit your child will learn how to use different strategies to multiply fractions and whole numbers and use the results to solve problems.

     Be on the look out for your child's result from the FAST Math PM 2 that students took on Friday (1/20). Students will bring home their report on Monday (1/23). As you review the report please keep in mind that we have not covered all of the standards. Below is a list of the standards that have been covered by 1/20. 
*MA.4.NSO.1.2 Read and write multi-digit whole numbers from 0 to 1,000,000 using standard form, expanded form and word form. 
*MA.4.NSO.1.3 Plot, order and compare multi-digit whole numbers up to 1,000,000.
*MA.4.NSO.1.4 Round whole numbers from 0 to 10,000 to the nearest 10, 100 or 1,000.
*MA.4.NSO.2.1 Recall multiplication facts with factors up to 12 and related division facts with automaticity.
*MA.4.NSO.2.2 Multiply two whole numbers, up to three digits by up to two digits, with procedural reliability.

*MA.4.NSO.2.5 Explore the multiplication and division of multi-digit whole numbers using estimation, rounding and place value.
*MA.4.FR.1.3 Identify and generate equivalent fractions, including fractions greater than one. Describe how the numerator and denominator are affected when the equivalent fraction is created.
*MA.4.FR.1.4 Plot, order and compare fractions, including mixed numbers and fractions greater than one, with different numerators and different denominators.
*MA.4.FR.2.1 Decompose a fraction, including mixed numbers and fractions greater than one, into a sum of fractions with the same denominator in multiple ways. Demonstrate each decomposition with objects, drawings and equations.
*MA.4.FR.2.2 Add and subtract fractions with like denominators, including mixed numbers and fractions greater than one, with procedural reliability.
*MA.4.AR.1.1 Solve real-world problems involving multiplication and division of whole numbers including problems in which remainders must be interpreted within the context.
*MA.4.AR.1.2 Solve real-world problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions with like denominators, including mixed numbers and fractions greater than one.

*MA.4.AR.2.2 Given a mathematical or real-world context, write an equation involving multiplication or division to determine the unknown whole number with the unknown in any position.
*MA.4.AR.3.1 Determine factor pairs for a whole number from 0 to 144. Determine whether a whole number from 0 to 144 is prime, composite or neither.
*MA.4.AR.3.2 Generate, describe and extend a numerical pattern that follows a given rule.

     To learn more about our standards and see some examples please visit the website below.
  
     This week in science we will begin work on Unit 4, Rocks, Minerals and Resources. In lesson 1 we will study the processes of weathering and erosion. Weathering is the process that wears down or breaks Earth's surface. This can be caused by water, wind, sand and small particles of rock, and plant and animal activity. Erosion is the process that moves rock, sand, and soil to other places. We will also discuss deposition, which is the process were rock, sand and soil is deposited in a new place. 
Students often confuse these concepts so please review these terms at home.

Week of 1/9/2023

 


Happy Victory Monday Everyone,

     What an exciting game on Saturday!! Our Jacksonville Jaguars were able to get the job done against the Tennessee Titans!! Although I do love the Titans because of #22, I had to root for my Jaguars on Saturday night!!


     From now until the end of the year, students are required to have a book with them to read in the hallway in the mornings before school. This would be a great way to get the reading done for book logs.

     This week in math, we will complete unit 9 on decomposing fractions, addition and subtraction of fractions. Our test will cover both unit 8 (equivalent fractions, plotting, ordering and comparing fractions) and unit 9. We will work on the study guide for unit 9 in class this week. I saved the unit 8 review for students that turned them in before we took the unit 8 quiz.. I have extra unit 8 reviews for any student that lost their review. 


     This week in science, we will continue learning about force and motion. This will be our last unit on physical science. When we finish this unit we will move to our earth/space science standards. This week we will begin learning that objects have a position. If the position changes the object is in motion. Objects can move in different ways: in a straight line, curved lines, or back and forth. Students will learn that speed tells you how the position of an object changes during a certain amount of time. Students will also learn how to calculate speed by dividing how far an object goes by the time it takes to get there. Students will also learn the difference between speed and velocity. Velocity is the speed and direction of an object. So for example, That she is walking at a speed of 3o meters per second. She is walking at a velocity of 30 meters per second south. And finally we will learn about acceleration. Acceleration is any change in velocity. An objects velocity changes if the object speeds up, slows down, or changes direction. 

Monday: Math: Freckle: Fact Practice and Decomposing Fractions -FR.2.1

Tuesday: Math: Complete sheet for lesson 9/6

Wednesday: Science: Complete pages 53-56 in pink book.

Week of January 2, 2023



Happy New Year Everyone,

    I hope everyone had a wonderful and restful vacation. We are at least coming back to a short week. Students only have school on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday this week. 


1/3 Tuesday
No School Teacher Planning Day

1/4 Wednesday
Students Return to School

January 4th-27th
FAST PM Testing Window


     This week in math we will begin working on unit 9. Unit 9 will be a continuation of our study of fractions. In this unit, we will focus on addition and subtraction meanings and strategies with fractions. We will decompose fractions as well as add and subtract fractions in mathematical and real-world contexts. 

In this unit we will cover the following standards:
*MA.4.FR.2.1 Decompose a fraction, including mixed numbers and fractions greater than one, into a sum of fractions with the same denominator in multiple ways. Demonstrate each decomposition with objects, drawings and equations. Example: 9/8 can be decomposed as 8/8 + 1/8 or as 3/8 + 3/8 + 3/8.
*MA.4.FR.2.2 Add and subtract fractions with like denominators, including mixed numbers and fractions greater than one, with procedural reliability. Example: The difference 9/5 − 4/5 can be expressed as 9 ๐‘“๐‘–๐‘“๐‘กโ„Ž๐‘  minus 4 ๐‘“๐‘–๐‘“๐‘กโ„Ž๐‘  which is 5 ๐‘“๐‘–๐‘“๐‘กโ„Ž๐‘ , or ๐‘œ๐‘›๐‘’.
*MA.4.AR.1.2 Solve real-world problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions with like denominators, including mixed numbers and fractions greater than one. Example: Megan is making pies and uses the equation 
1 3/4 + 3 1/4 = ๐‘ฅ when baking. Describe a situation that can represent this equation.

     This week in science, we will continue learning about force and motion. This will be our last unit on physical science. When we finish this unit we will move to our earth/space science standards. This week we will begin learning that objects have a position. If the position changes the object is in motion. Objects can move in different ways: in a straight line, curved lines, or back and forth. Students will learn that speed tells you how the position of an object changes during a certain amount of time. Students will also learn how to calculate speed by dividing how far an object goes by the time it takes to get there. Students will also learn the difference between speed and velocity. Velocity is the speed and direction of an object. So for example, That she is walking at a speed of 3o meters per second. She is walking at a velocity of 30 meters per second south. And finally we will learn about acceleration. Acceleration is any change in velocity. An objects velocity changes if the object speeds up, slows down, or changes direction.
