4th Quarter Progress Reports Go Home

     This week in math, finish our work on unit 14. Last week students learned that angles are parts of circles. And a 1 degree angle is equal to 1/360 of a circle. It takes 360, 1 degree angles to equal a circle. This week we will continue our work with angles. Students will identify different types of angles in two dimensional figures.       

We will also learn strategies for finding missing angle measures using given and known information from a diagram

angle x = 35 degrees

angle x = 100 degrees

                      

     We are participating in the Superintendent's Math Challenge. This contest will happen through Freckle. Each week I will place several Freckle math activities in the students' backpacks. The activities for the math challenge will say Math Challenge at the beginning of the title. Math Challenge activities are optional, however students are highly encouraged to complete them as they will also be used to help us review all of our math standards before our final FAST test in May. Students can earn tickets and other prizes for successfully (70% and above) completing activities each week.  

       This week in science, we will begin working on our life science standards. This includes both units 10 and 11 in our book. We will start out learning how plants reproduce. Students will learn the reproductive parts of flowers include both male and female parts. Students will also learn the process by which a flowering plant is pollinated and becomes fertilized and ready to make new seeds.
