October 7, 2013 Day 28 -Week 7

Friday's Soul Shoppe Assembly!!
Happy Blessed Monday!


It was a beautiful October day full of glorious sunshine.


Today’s events:


Spelling pretest


We then did some reflection on this past weekend.  Students were able to share what they did over the weekend.  


Mini -- Dear Time


Science --- discussion on scientific method.  We have been working on what goes into thinking like a scientist, what goes into do a “real” science based research project and why you can only have ONE variable.  
Today we watched and took a brainpop quiz all about the scientific method.


Dare Mighty Things and the Curiosity Mission...we studied the latest Mars rover, watched how it landed on Mars, what is it doing on Mars and answered questions about the rover.  


Math:
Tomorrow is our test on multiplication.  Students are expected to use the generic area model as part of the assessment process.  
Tonight’s homework is all about multiplication.  


Prepare for the remainder of the week.
Students were given 30+ minutes to write the entire week’s homework into their day planner and begin working on their homework.  


Kind regards,


Mr. Hubbard
