| 49ers were unable to add another one of these on Sunday. |
We began the day with P.E. on its real day, Monday.
The morning time was spent on organizing prior assessments and upcoming assessments. We will be doing 30 to 45 minutes of assessment over the next week to prepare for our February collaboration meetings. We analyze the areas of strengths and areas of refocus as we approach the May testing season. On in individual level this allows us to work with students so they can read/assess these same areas and know which areas they have learned and which areas to focus on.
Math:
Decimals and fractions --
We discussed the history of the two types of expressing values. How they are related and how you can use them interchangeably to meet your arithmetic needs.
Today we practiced both:
1. traditional style of multiplication (w/ 80’s terminology of “bunny hops”)
2. generic area model with decimal multiplication
Common Core Math -- will demand that students know both methods therefore they need to practice and be exposed to be methods.
Our school’s computer servers went down towards the end of the day therefore I have no way to share today’s notes with you. They were saved on a network file that I have no access to at this time.

Tiger Mom reading
We continued reading the story. The author shared out how she recalled her father calling her “garbage” however she understood this wasn’t personally and it was to call her out on her disrespectful attitude. She then shared how she called her Americanized daughter the same thing and her peers of non-Tiger Moms ostracized her.
