Good Morning boys and girls!  Welcome to day 2 of home learning.  I have put together some more learning options for you to work on.  I hope you were able to spend some time outside yesterday, it was a beautiful day. 

Language Arts:

Everyday read for 15-20 minutes.  Log your books and time spent reading. 

Practice Spelling List from last week.  Choose another 5 words from your list to write a sentence for each. 

Listen to reading on Tumble Books.  Login information: nblib   nbschools

Remembrance Day is approaching next week.  We will soon be writing acrostic poems for this.  To get started, brainstorm some ideas and words that are about Remembrance Day for positivity and peace.  (peace, remember, kindness etc.)  In the following days we will begin working on the poem. 

Math:

Log in to Splash Learn.  I will be loading assignments to your profile.  When you finish the assignments, choose your own game/activity.  Login information:  CKGIYI  glue73

Play from any of the math websites we have used:  ABCya, multiplication.com, or mathplayground. 

Study x2 and x3.  If you have a deck of cards go through the deck as practice for each (ex.  Focus on x2…every card you turn over multiply by 2.  Then try x3.)

Work the following problems.  Show your work (equation, draw a pic, etc.) and write a sentence to complete. 

1.  Roger went to a bookstore.  He found 2 books he wanted to buy.  The first book had 529 pages and the second book had 492 pages.  How many more pages does the first book have than the second book?

2.  Lee needs to buy apples for the pies he is making.  He finds bags of apples with 6 apples in each bag.  If Lee bought 5 bags of apples, how many apples did he buy?

Cross Curricular:

We have been learning about rocks and being a rock collector.  Watch the following video about how rocks are formed.  Then complete the sheet attached.  (If you cannot print this from a printer, work on a sheet of paper and bring it to class.)

Good Morning boys and girls!  I hope you had an amazing and fun Halloween weekend and I look forward to hearing your stories when we return to in-person learning.  Today you will be learning from home.  Here are a few options for you for today.  If you haven’t completed your at home learning package that was sent home you can work on anything from that package.  If you have already completed that, here is the work for today:

1.  Name of the video:

2.  How were the children explorers in the video?

3.  Tell about 3 things the children learned during their exploration.

Good Morning Grade 4!

Today is day 3 of home learning.  I hope you are able to work on some of the tasks from yesterday. 

Here are a few things for today:

1.  Language Arts: 

Reading – read a selection of your choice.  Try to read for at least 15-20 minutes.  Talk about your book to a parent/guardian.  Tell about the main character, the setting, and if you have a chapter book – make a prediction about what will happen.

Writing – You should be working on a story from the last 2 home learning days.  Here’s the day to add the finishing touches.  Wrap up your story with a great ending that ties up the story.  THEN make sure to go back and reread the story to check for punctuation, upper case letters, and spelling.  See if you can add two extra DETAILS somewhere to your story.  This is not an extra part to the story but a detail to describe something.  (ex.  I walked around the pumpkin patch.  The pumpkin I chose was big, round and so heavy to carry.)

You can go on to tumble books and listen to reading.  Here is the information:

2.  Math:

Our class has been set up with the SplashLearn website.  Continue to work on activities from this site.  Try to spend 20-30 minutes (or more!!) working on activities once you are logged in.  You can access this with the code below.  Click “student” and find your name (the avatar was randomly generated by the website).

class code:  CKGIYI

class password:   glue73

 Continue to study multiplication facts x0 and x1 up to 12.  (0x1=0 up to 0x12=0, 1x1=1 up to 1x12=12)

Use the numbers below to write in expanded form, draw a picture of base ten blocks, and skip count on by 5’s for the next 5 numbers.

2175                 3190                 1325

**you can also choose 3 numbers up to 100 or 1000 if these are too difficult.               

3.  Cross Curricular:

Explore outside in your yard or somewhere close to home (with a grown up of course, not alone!).  As an explorer, keep a log/journal of the things you notice.  Write down 5 interesting things you have found or seen on your exploration.  When you arrive back home, choose 2 of those things to expand on and write about.  Tell about the following things:  where you found it, why you found it interesting, how you think it got there, and describe what it looks like.  This activity goes along with our work on explorations as well as rock collection. 

**Don’t forget to get some physical activity.  Play a game, ride a bike, go for a walk.  It is important to stay active.   

Good Morning, Grade 4!

Today you will be working from home.  Please work on the home learning package that was sent home in September.  Check back tomorrow for new work that will be posted here on my teacher page.  

A few other things to work on if you are looking for something extra today:

1.  Read and log.  You can read a selection of your choice.  Don't forget about the strategies for solving unknown words - look at the all the letters in the word, stretch out the word, think about what would make sense, and you can skip it and go back to fix it up.  

2.  Recall what you did over the weekend.  Choose an activity or something that you enjoyed to recount what happened.  Begin a plan for writing about the activity by thinking about the 5 important events about the activity.  (first, next, then, after that, finally).

3.  Get some fresh air.  Try to play outside for at least 30 minutes.  (ex. ride your bicycle, look for signs of fall)

I certainly wish we could be together in class, but it is best to stay safe to keep healthy.
