Language Arts
- All but a handful of students have now begun typing their stories. Many are close to finishing. To be finished tomorrow: Students will need to have typed up the good copy of their story and finished the self-reflection. These will be stapled together and handed in tomorrow before 11 a.m.
Math
- Patterns: We've begun understanding and identifying what patterns are in math through pictures (or "pictorially"), through numbers ("symbolically"), and describing them through words (e.g. "Start at 3, add 4 each time.")
- Fraction Masterpieces have been overdue for many days. It is one of the assignments that must be completed to be on Prodigy tomorrow.
- Students are participating in a Hot Air Balloon Challenge to learn about the last Property of Air. In teams, they are to build a hot air balloon; however, extra materials and help will cost them. This is to reinforce the math idea of decimals. Launch day will be tomorrow.
Social
- Project status: To be considered on track tomorrow, students need to have the following done: Finished gathering research, identifying symbols to use for their wampum project, ensuring each symbol is meaningful, easily identifiable, and informative, coloring the wampum belt (see: assignment outline).
- Those wishing to work ahead over the break may write their rough drafts for each of their paragraphs: a summary of their event, an explanation of their symbol choices, and finally (the most difficult portion of the project) the paragraph that justifies their event as THE MOST IMPORTANT event in the history of democracy.
