Students completed practice problems in class, demonstrating their strategies and how to solve on the screen for their classmates. Students also had a quick refresher on how to do "gridded response for the tests this week. Tonight's homework problems are below.
Extra Credit Math Project Opportunity
Create an Integers Timeline!
- You need to include your birth on your timeline. This will be the zero on your timeline. Please label it with a “0” as well as the year
- You need to find 5 world events that occurred prior to your birth and 5 family events that happened prior to your birth. Since these events happened before you were born, they will be your negative events on a timeline. On the number line, you need to label both the year that they happened and a number that corresponds to the year.
- You need to find 5 world events that have happened since your birth and 5 family events that happened since your birth. Since these events happened after you were born, they will be your positive events. On the number line, you need to label both the year that they happened and a number that corresponds to the year.
- How do I figure out what number corresponds to the year?
- To figure out which number to assign to the year, start at your birth, “0”. If you were born in 1998, that would be your “0”. If something happened in 1995, that was 3 years BEFORE you were born, so it should have a (–3). If something happened in 2000, that was 2 years after you were born, so it should be a (+2).
- Use an online timeline creator for your final product and don't forget pictures!

Very important:
Student Photosynthesis presentations were spectacular today! Below, Savar interviews "Mr. Flower" on the big screen as classmates look on and learn more about photosynthesis.
Reminder, this Thursday will be the first quarter science test. This is an open notebook test and students should be getting their notes ready!!

DUE 10/29/15 | Students had a super day, competing for an extra 10 minutes of recess time by earning the most points during our Jeopardy Math Tournament. Time was also spent working on IXL's and Ten Marks assignments that students are supposed to complete before the end of the quarter. Tonight's homework can be found below. |
Science
As we approach the end of the quarter, students continue to work on their Ecosystems unit in iCurio. Currently, students are using Discovery Education to learn more about our local ecosystem and Brain Pop and Study Jams to test their retention of material. On Monday, many students will be presenting their projects about Photosynthesis and/or Ecosystems.
