Activity #1 - Scholastic Magazine Packet

Read the Scholastic Magazine from cover to cover. I hope you enjoy this one. It has an article about the upcoming election and the Titanic. There are some short articles too. Instructions on how to access the magazine online are attached to the Scholastic packet. After reading the articles don’t forget to watch the fun videos and play the games that are available to you.

After reading the magazine, you will be completing 3 of the worksheets that are included in the packet. Everyone is to complete the “Be a Quiz Whiz” worksheet. There are a total of 10 questions about the stories that are included in the magazine. Make sure to go back to the articles to find your answers.

After completing this page, you have a choice. You can complete the 2 pages about the election or the 2 pages about the Titanic article. You have to choose one of the articles, you may not choose a worksheet from each article. If you choose the election article, you have an “Election Words to Know” page and a “Close-Reading Questions” page to complete. If you choose the Titanic article, you will be completing a “Crack the Code” sheet and a “Close-Reading Questions” page.

When doing the “Close Reading” papers, please remember to use complete sentences. A one or two word answer is not acceptable. To answer each question, you should be creating 3 or more sentences. For all the papers, take your time and remember to go back to the articles to find your answers. Use the tools you have and do your best. 

Activity #2 - Math Workbook Page

We started chapter 2 in addition in our math textbook. Today you will be working on some problems in your math workbook based on what we learned in class on Thursday and Friday. Friday’s concept was adding without regrouping. Do the following 10 math problems on page 14 in your math workbook -  1, 3, 5, 8, 16, 18, 20, 22, 26, 27. If you would like to do more problems or complete the entire workbook page, you may do so.

Activity #3 - Social Studies

We have been learning how to read maps in lesson 2. This packet is a fun project for you to do. You will be creating a little booklet called “Maps and Globes”. The directions and the grading rubric are attached to the booklet pages. Make sure to follow the direction and have fun coloring and creating the booklet. Use your notes and your Social Studies Textbook to help you answer some of the questions in the booklet.

Review the lesson 2 notes stapled in your notebook. We will review these concepts on Wednesday and you will have a test on lesson 2 (maps) on Thursday. Review your notes a little each day for 10 minutes to help you prepare for the test. 

I will be holding office hours on Monday the 28th from 9 am to 10 am. I will send the ZOOM meeting code and password through email. For safety reasons the link and password will not be listed on my classroom site, please refer to the email if you need to ZOOM with me. The cyber day assignments will be listed on the classroom site but the Scholastic worksheets and Social Studies Booklet will not be posted on the site.

Some reminders for next week - practice the Morning Offering. Oral testing will be on Tuesday and Wednesday (29th & 30th). Check out our new spelling words and get a head start on studying, if you can. The words are for our new story Kumak’s Fish.
