Hey hey hey! Lots of kids are continuing to do a GREAT JOB! Let’s keep that up. We had over 100 comments during our Super Sentence session yesterday, but only 14 kids participated. Let’s see if we can improve on both during today’s 9 a.m. interactive session in Google Classroom!

Today I want you to focus mostly on three things: 1.) Finishing your Chapter Book Project. It’s due tomorrow. 2.) Completing your math assignment and 3.) reading and practicing your play script (see the post in Classwork for your part). Aside from those things I’ve kept the day pretty light. You have a history entry. In Classwork you have a very short reading activity about a alligator on the lose in Chicago, and your End-of-the-Day Review. I’ve also posted a new Read Aloud, one of my favorite picture books about the Wild West. It’s called Saving Sweetness.

For PE I want you to go online and find a good workout we can post on the Platy. Make sure you’re surfing in safe mode, and make sure the workouts are kid-friendly. They can be Zumba, dance, fitness, or yoga, but I want to emphasize that you need to be careful when searching for one. Include the word “kids” in your search terms. Get help from an adult if you’re unsure how to stay safe on the Internet. Send me a link in Docs or by email if you find something you like.

For math, do Worksheet A for classwork and Worksheet B for homework. It’s mostly review, but you can use a trick called “cross multiplication.” The steps are 1.) use cross multiplication to convert to equivalent fractions; 2.) add; 3.) simplify, which may mean turning an improper fraction into a mixed number. Watch this video to see those steps. You can also watch the lovely Miss Rios show how to cross multiply in the video.
