Explorer projects pushed on! Last day tomorrow!
Math was all about standard multiplication algorithm today. Students know how to do it, but there is a HUGE issue with multiplication facts, lining up place values, and adding efficiently. If we could cut back on the silly mistakes, we would be flying through this! If you child is still having issues with multiplication facts, I highly encourage you to get your child on REFLEX: https://www.reflexmath.com/

In the afternoon, we reviewed our Greek and Latin roots with a matching game. We then got together with partners to re-revise our narratives based on the feedback I provided. The scores on the first round of narratives were quite low. Many students neglected to use resources, apply strategies such as SHOW DON'T TELL, and disregarded publishing checklists. We had a big discussion how this is a HUGE over site on many of their parts. In our upcoming narrative, we will look to take steps forward.
Mrs. Smith joined us for reading and we continued to research pot bellied pigs. In the past two lesson we learned how to support our opinion with facts and then elaborate in a focused way on them. Awesome!
