Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a great weekend and is ready for a full week ahead! Milestone Madness Coach Digital is currently down. Milestone Madness for this week is all linked on the milestone page of my website linked below. Please make sure your child is completing the homework each week and reviewing for the upcoming tests. AMMS Field Trip
We will be at AMMS from 8:45-11:30 on Wednesday. Students will have a chance to learn about Autrey Mill Middle School and ask questions they have. They will also have a snack while we are there. Curriculum Updates Blue Math: We are working on unit 5, 2D shapes and their attributes. Test date over unit 5 has been changed to March 7th. This was changed due to student performance on the quiz. 5th Grade math teachers have decided to reteach the skills and allow students to make corrections to their quiz. They will also have 3 more classwork grades on this unit in order to ensure they have full understanding of the standards of the unit. Students have learned about the attributes of shapes and how they relate to each other in a hierarchy of shapes. While this unit has very little math "computations", students still tend to struggle with all of the reading that is required of them. Please make sure you are reviewing and help your child work through this unit. You can play a fun review game by following the following link: GAME CODE 345587 Ask your students to join game with this code at https://join.quizizz.com Yellow Math: We are working on unit 6 which covers Statistics. This is a difficult unit as it is one of the first times students will be dealing with statistics. Students will be required to analyze information and graph their information in order to draw conclusions. They have learned how to find measures of center including mean, median, and mode as well as graph using histograms. Students will learn measures of variability and box plots this week. Please make sure you are reviewing and help your child work through this unit. Our test date over this unit is March 7th. Here are some helpful videos and practice questions from Khan Academy. Science: We are working on a science unit this week over cells and microorganisms. This unit is very rich in vocabulary. Please make sure you are reviewing the vocabulary and concepts with your child. There are some great brainpops on cells and cell organelles. Below you can find a fun online quiz as well. The test for this unit will be March 8th. GAME CODE 506578 Ask your students to join game with this code at https://join.quizizz.com
