Today's math lesson focused on math word problems that involve adding and subtracting with decimals. Check out this video for some strategies for solving word problems.
In writing we continued publishing our final personal narrative drafts. Reading focused on the strategy of sequence of events. We worked on reading a story about the Snazzy Steppers of double dutch and their rise to fame. We sequenced the rise to fame from when the began to when they won the New York state championship. The video below is a real quick explanation of sequence of events. It also is important to mention that sequence of events does not normally follow set amount of time, unless it directly states it. Watch for flashback and flash-forwards! They affect the starts and finishes of sequence of events.
Finally, we had our student council speeches today. Excellent job to the 6 who are running! You did a fantastic job writing speeches, making posters, and being a great role model for T'ville students.
