Math & Science Monday through Friday -  Math - Fifth graders finished Bridges Unit 1 last Thursday so we started taking the Unit 1 assessment. Students who did not get to finish last week will get more time this week to finish their assessment. Once 5th graders are done with their assessment they will reflect on what they learned and what they still need to learn on their eportfolio before we start Unit 2 on fractions. Sixth graders are finishing Unit 6 this week so they will take their Unit 6 assessment then reflect on what they learned and what they still need to learn on their eportfolios before we move on to the next unit on dividing fractions, Unit 4. Science - We are done with the Coding in Minecraft courses so that we can move on to our Robotics Unit. Students who did not finish all seven lessons can still work on those at home to get their badge certification of completion. Students will reflect on what they learned on their eportfolios before we start the Robotics Unit. Writer's Elective (Monday and Friday only) - We are done with our 9/11 Class Book! Click here to check it out. The next phase for students is to learn some of the elements of stories to write their own short story and publish their own book! HW - Once students are done with their Math end of unit assessments this week there is no other homework for Math except for working on Aleks two or three days this week. For Science if students could work on the practice Science Quizizz, that would be great. No homework over Winter Break - just have a happy holiday season! Wednesday - Secure in place drill today at 9 am. Thursday - Student of the month assembly at 2 pm.

Next week we will start our robotics unit! Writer's Elective (Monday and Friday only) - We're almost done with our 9/11 book, we did NOT have Writer's Elective last Friday because of the dance so our book is not done yet! Those who are done are working on learning the elements of good stories to write a short story to make a book of their own. HW - Kids who can practice at home can work on Aleks for Math and the practice Quizizz that I prepared for Science. Sixth graders can also access all the Unit 6 Desmos lessons we've already finished to make sure they are ready for the Unit 1 test.

All the other assignments (see here) are available to all students to do at home. Students also need to finish their Potential Energy Robotics Challenge eportfolio entry for homework since we do not have more class time available. If you need another copy of the Youth Summit field trip permission slip, download it here and print or have your child ask Mr. Gonzalez for another copy. Tuesday - Fifth graders will take the Washington Comprehensive Assessment of Science test today with Mrs. Fortier. I will work with the 6th graders. Each class will visit the creek again to collect more water quality data then back in class continue learning about their parameter to teach it to their classmates next week. Wednesday - Same as yesterday but for everyone since all the 5th graders should be done with their Science test! Thursday - Same as yesterday for my Period 1 and 2 classes. From 1 to 3 pm all 5th graders and 6th graders will have an HIV lesson by Nurse Reina Garcia. Friday -  Today we will be on our Early Release schedule, 8:45 am to 12:15 pm, to kick off Rhody weekend! We will rotate students through all three classes like usual, only for a shortened amount of time. For Science, kids are still working on learning their water quality parameter to be able to teach their classmates next week.

5th/6th-grade Science Monday - Garden Today! Back in class students will continue learning about their chosen water quality parameters as well as how to use the water quality testing equipment. HW - Youth Summit information packet, with request for field trip chaperones, and field trip permission slip going home with students tonight. Let Mr. Gonzalez know if you can chaperone this trip on Classdojo or by email or returning the paper signed. And send your child with the permission slip filled out and signed.  By now everyone should be done with Robotics Vocabulary, Energy Vocabulary, Friction, Forces and Motion, Humans Flying, Super Speed, Physics of Football 1, 2, and 3 at least! All the other assignments (see here) are available to all students to do at home. Students also need to finish their Potential Energy Robotics Challenge eportfolio entry for homework since we do not have more class time available. Tuesday - Today students will take the Math Computer Adaptive Test (CAT). Then we will have our 1st period class at the end of the day, Science with me. For Science today my Period 1 class will continue learning about their water quality parameters and learning how to use the equipment. Once they are ready, we will go to the creek to get water quality data. Wednesday - By today teams should be learning how to use their water quality testing equipment. If teams are ready we will go to the creek and start collecting data. Thursday - Today students will take the Math Performance Task test. Then we will have our 2nd period class at the end of the day, Science with me. For Science today my Period 2 class will continue learning about their water quality parameters and learning how to use the equipment. Once they are ready, we will go to the creek to get water quality data. Friday -  I will finish training all three classes today so they we can start going to the creek to collect water quality data. In class student teams will continue to learn about their specific parameter so they can teach the rest of their class.

5th/6th-grade Science Monday - Garden Today! Today we will be checking our Survive the Sound fish as tracking starts! All classes have finished getting their robot kits ready for next year's students so all classes are officially staring to work on our Environmental Stewardship Project! HW - By now everyone should be done with Robotics Vocabulary, Energy Vocabulary, Friction, Forces and Motion, Humans Flying, Super Speed, Physics of Football 1, 2, and 3 at least! All the other assignments (see here) are available to all students to do at home. Students also need to finish their Potential Energy Robotics Challenge eportfolio entry for homework since we do not have more class time available. Tuesday - During Period 1 students will take the ELA CAT Smarter Balance Assessment.  After testing I will have 6A for Science. This class will begin the Environmental Stewardship unit. Wednesday - All three classes will have Science today! Once all classes have chosen teams and chosen water quality parameters to specialize in, we will start learning how to use the water quality testing equipment. Thursday - Today in Period 1 all students will take the ELA Performance Task Smarter Balance Assessment. After testing I will have 6A for Science again. This class will continue working on the Environmental Stewardship unit. Friday -  Every class will have Science today. By now all classes should have started learning how to use the water quality testing equipment. As classes are ready, we will begin going down to the creek to collect data!
