Math & Science Monday to Friday -  Math - Monday, we will have our last unit 4 practice (Math Google Classroom assignment 094 6.4 Practice Day 2). Then on Tuesday we will take the Unit 4 end-of-unit assessment, assignment 095, and on Wednesday we will complete the end-of-unit assessment reflection, assignment 096. Since we will have the Smarter Balanced Assessment (SBA) starting in April, after spring break, and since there is quite a bit of algebra on the 6th-grade Math SBA, we are going to skip Unit 5 on Decimals and jump to Unit 6 on Expressions and Equations. Thursday will start with the pre-unit check, assignment 097 and Friday we will do assignment 098 Weight for It. Science - Student teams will continue to work on their Science Google Classroom assignment 021 Potential Energy Efficiency Design Project. Teams are building and programming their robots, and once their robots can do their job, they will measure the mass, height change, and velocity to calculate the potential and kinetic energy of their robotic jobs! Friday, March 26, is the deadline for this project because we will be starting our Ocean Guardian School Environmental Stewardship project the week after! Tuesday - Garden Day! (Our classes have garden in the morning.) ------------------ 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. Students can also finish or go back through any online assignment once we complete it in class on a computer, tablet, or phone. 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 on computers, tablets, or phones.

They will need to click on View more in the Resources section. Thursday:  Nature Inspired Engineering Wayground video in the Resources section. Then same as Wednesday if they still need to work on 021 Potential Energy Efficiency Design project. Friday:  Energy Flow Wayground video in the Resources section. Same as above. All 6th graders are regularly emailed a complete assignment report so that they can keep track of missing assignments and of assignments that they forgot to turn in after we finished in class. Students who submit or turn in assignments late will email Mr. Gonzalez letting him know that the assignment has been completed late so that Mr. Gonzalez can check their work and update their completion status. ------------------ 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.
