Tuesday to Friday -  We will be working on Unit 2 in Bridges on fractions and Unit 4 on Desmos on dividing fractions. We will also be working on robotics in Science. Once students complete the programming lessons and know how to program their robots and use the sensors they will start the actual challenge for this year. Student of the Month assembly for December will be happening Thursday at 2 pm. Thursday - On Thursday students will take the ELA Language MAP test in the morning. Then we will have some of our Math and Science in the afternoon after everyone or at least most are done testing.
