Math & Science Monday to Friday -  Math - This week we are going to start multiplying and dividing decimals with assignment 092 Decimal Multiplication. We will start Tuesday because Monday kids will get more time to finish their quiz reflection so they can fix the ones they got wrong. Science - We had a great week last week learning from the North Olympic Salmon Coalition (NOSC)! Students got to collect benthic macro data for this year on Thursday and complete some creek restoration activities on Friday's Finnriver field trip. Here are photos of the trip (and all other things Math & Science so far this year). This week we are going to continue learning about climate change and brainstorm local issues to solve with innovative and sustainable solutions. Students are also going to start learning how to use the water quality testing equipment so that we can visit our creek and start collecting water quality data! Tuesday - Garden Day! (Our classes have garden in the afternoon.) ------------------ Any work that is not completed during class time becomes homework so that students don't fall behind and so that all students can access ALL the learning. Regular HW available for anyone who needs it -  For Math students have a workbook that they can take pages out of to take home for lessons that need more work if they don't get it during class or if they miss due to absence. For Science, if students fall behind on their classwork they can catch up at home (if students do not have access to a computer at home, ask Mr. Gonzalez for an alternative activity or assignment). If students want to access the practice quizzes and games on Google Classroom at home, they can work on those as well.
