Week Eight Schedule

Helpful tip:  Students in grade 4 are required to complete 5 hours a week of school work.  If you are finding that the assignments are taking longer than about an hour a day, I have place an asterisk (*) beside the assignments that are most important - complete those first.  Remember, I am still here as your teacher and want to work with you!  If you are struggling with something, please ask me before spending too much time struggling over it.

Before starting assignments, make sure you have checked back to last week's work and read your feedback!

​

MONDAY​

  • *Teams Meeting at 10:00 for a lesson on our new science unit, Wheels and Levers.​

  • *Journal entry: Continue to use the weekly prompts.  Use the May 25 Journal Response page.  This should take 10-15 minutes.​

  • *Science: Read the overview page and spread out the activities throughout the week.​

  • *Fur Trade (math/language arts/social): Watch math overview video.  Begin the Nearpod lesson about the Fur Trade.  It has videos, readings and questions.  Spend about 20 minutes on this today.​

  • Grammar Minute 34. Watch the video and use your booklet to complete Monday.  An answer key will be emailed to parents so you can mark your work at home.​

  • Prodigy: Use Prodigy as your daily math practice.  In grade 4, you should be practicing math daily above and beyond regular school work.  If you spend 10-15 minutes a day on basic math practice using Prodigy, this will cover your “assignment.”  The assignment in Prodigy is the game that shows up when you go in to play.
