Greetings parents:
I apologize for the late post, I was out sick today. I should be back tomorrow.
As you know, we will be taking a field trip on Tuesday, 9/25. If you have not sent in the permission slip, please do that as soon as possible. Even if your child will not be attending, we need the slip back. Each class will need 2 parent volunteers to go. We will not be gone the full day. If you are interested in going, (and your child is in my homeroom) please let me know.
We have a new science curriculum! Fulton County has provided most of the materials we will need for our labs. Yay!!
They sent us lots and lots of boxes. Unfortunately, the materials are not sorted by unit. We are asking for parent volunteers to help us this Wednesday at 2:45. The more helpers we have, the less time it will take. If you're interested in helping, please sign up at the link below.

Any help will be appreciated!!
This week in...
MATH
Red group will continue with multiplication. Students will learn 2 multiplication strategies; the area model strategy and the algorithm strategy (this is the one we all learned as kids).
I posted a how to video of area model on google classroom. Their quiz on multiplication, factors, multiples and prime and composite numbers is scheduled for Wednesday 9/26.
Blue group will take their unit 5 test tomorrow. They will begin Unit 6, Geometry, on Wednesday.
Purple group will continue working on multiplication with larger numbers. Their quiz will be this Friday. They will start working on a Task called Farmer Brown.
SCIENCE
We are beginning our Water and Weather unit this week. I'm excited to dive into our new Science curriculum! Students have a text book and a workbook that will be kept at school. They can access the online book by going through Launchpad. They know how to log on, but I've also included directions in the "links" section of this site.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
