Semester One in the books!

It is hard to believe that the first semester is done and in the books!  We wrapped up the semester in Superhero fashion with our Unit 3 & 6 test.  This was our addition and subtraction unit test as well as a benchmark test covering most missed questions from previous tests.  I was so SUPER proud of how they did!!  I told them that if they score an 85 or higher, they could eat in my classroom.  And let me just tell you, I had a room full of kids!!

We started our next short unit on graphing last week.  Last week, we focused on reading bar graphs and pictographs or "analyzing the data".  They did very well.  This week we will create graphs from survey data.  They will be creating a survey using a website called Kahoot.  After they collect data using their survey, they will create a graph and questions.  This is a short unit so we will take our test next week.  I will be sending home a small amount of homework tomorrow for students to work on reading, analyzing, and creating graphs.  The homework will be due on Monday, February 2nd.

Please don't forget that this Thursday night is Math & Science Night.  The tailgating party (aka dinner) will begin at 5:30.  Then the fun math and science festivities will begin.  We will have math games, hands on science activities with the SMART girls from Davis Intermediate, and science vocabulary tips.  It should be a fun night of learning.  We hope you can join us!!

Also, if you have not sent in your field trip money, it is due by this Friday 1/30.

Have a great rest of the week!!
