Hello!

During school on Friday we entered in this data into our Math Journals (pages 27 and 43):

High:  89 at McAllen, Texas

Low:  -36 at Chandalar Lake, Alaska

(Calculate the range.)

Sunrise:  6:55 AM

Sunset:  5:36 PM

(Calculate the length of day.)

We also visited Mrs. Driscoll for keyboarding and took a spelling test.

During Math, we visited the site below:

By clicking the "play button" at the bottom of the screen, you can click your way through the lesson like we did.  (Don't rush ahead and peek at the answers!)

We also played multiplication baseball.  I was on Julia's team...we lost by one point to Markus and Jack!  

I also demonstrated how the students could make movies using the Zimmer Twin website.  A tutorial is located ------->

During rotation, students worked on finishing up:

Florida Maps

Food Chain Puzzles

Anyone who was finished with these items were able to try out the Zimmer Twins website for fun.  You can only save your movies by creating an account.  That will have to be your parents' decision.  Show them the website and ask if they would be willing to grant you permission.  (They need to activate your account.)  You are allowed to utilize the site at school as much as you like, but you won't be able to save your work.

During rotation, we also read in our Fudge books.  

Fudge-A-Mania:  Read chapters-  The Best News of the Century and Fudge-A-Mania

Tales of a 4th Grade Nothing: Read Chapter 6

Double Fudge: We read all of "Mr. Money", but only part of "The Green Stuff".

We've missed you and are looking forward to seeing you Monday!
