Positivity Project Word of the Week

This week our school community will be focusing on the character strength of Humility. Humility means you do not seek the spotlight. You let your actions speak for themselves.

Humble people have an accurate (not underestimated) sense of their abilities and achievements. They hold the capacity to acknowledge their mistakes and limitations and are open to advice and new ideas. They do not show off their possessions or accomplishments.

Science- Mystery Science: Spaceship Earth  

        Rotation and Revolution of the Earth around the Sun.

Reading- Starting Unit 7: Make Inferences/Draw Conclusions

• Monday- Look Closely
• Tuesday- From the Poem" Paul Revers's Ride"
• Wednesday- The Worlds Oceans
• Thursday- Nuclear Energy

Math- Continuing to work on the unit: Place Value and Decimal Operations. 

Unit Goals

• Students build from place value understanding in grade 4 to recognize that in a multi-digit number, a digit in one place represents 10 times as much as it represents in the place to its right and of what it represents in the place to its left. They use this place value understanding to round, compare, order, add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals.

The Algebra Prognosis test this week is on Tuesday!
