We finished our first math unit and had our final test yesterday. Overall, the class scored well on the test! Great news! It is my policy that anytime a student receives a grade lower than a C (or 70%), they may make corrections or retake the quiz or test. This goes for quizzes and tests in all subjects. Next week, we will being chapter 2, which is on multiplication of whole numbers.
We are also finishing up our second chapter in social studies. The final quiz will be next week. After that, we will be switching to our Rocks and Minerals unit in science. It is a very fun, hands-on unit that the students will love!
In language arts, we will continue to work on recognizing literacy elements. This past week we studied genre, next week we will study plot and theme. The students will also pick their topic for their personal narrative essay and begin prewriting.
We used the iPad apps GOMath4 and Doodlecast to prepare for the math test this week.
