In social studies we continued to find out more about explorers and made a connection to today's holiday- Columbus Day. Tomorrow we will have our geography quiz. Study!
In math, students recieved back their Learning Target Assessment which covers all 5th grade standards. So far we have only taught patterns, place value, and operations with decimal numbers. Those 3 standards will count towards the marking period report card- the other standards were just to see where students stood so far in math. Overall these were pretty strong! Then we continued to use place value to divide.
In the afternoon, RELA reviewed their Wonder part 1 quizzes. These would have been superb if directions were followed. Some silly mistakes from people not answering questions fully!! Overall, these were good.
Next, we analyzed our next set of Greek and Latin root words- "port" meaning carry and "miss'mit" meaning send.

Then we discussed the upcoming Part 2 and 3 vocabulary for Wonder.
To finish the day, students began their Text Dependent Analysis for their first round of book clubs. We will finish this tomorrow. The question revolved around finding a theme for their novel and using text evidence throughout to support it.
