Dec 12-16
Last week students studied patterns, writing variable expressions, and exploring graphing and/or plotting points on 2 coordinate graphs.
They also explored solving multi-step story problems and writing expressions, with varibles, to match the problems being solved.
This week, we will continue to solve mult-step story problems and review past concepts in the unit of Operations and Algebraic thinking. Depending on pretests scores, students will decide if they have mastered each strand within the unit and if they are ready to be tested on their accelartion. (Take the same test but be tested on fourth/fifth grade concepts)
We will be taking the post test either Friday of this week or Monday of next week (Dec 19th.) Please let me know if you plan on not being here the week of Dec 19th for any reason, this way we can assure that your child takes his or her test before the holiday break. All of the standards being tested are in your child's interactive notebook which can be taken home to be studied.
