Tomorrow is the practice test for gifted screening. A permission form went home explaining what this is. If you want your child to participate, you will have to send the signed permission form tomorrow. Students who are not participating will be doing regular literacy activities during testing time.
We are finishing up our unit on Data Management. Last week students had the chance to create a bar graph with data we collected on Smarties - how fun! This week, we will wrap up with some more problem solving and a lesson on mode. Quiz date will be announced tomorrow. Students will have the opportunity to bring the review home before then.
In Writing, we are working on paragraphs. The success criteria is that students' paragraphs:
- have the first line indented
- have a topic sentence (that doesn't contain any details)
- 3 or more supporting details that directly support the topic sentence
- a concluding sentence that restates the topic/opinion
- contain 5-star sentences
