Can you believe we are already in the fifth week of this school year?
FRIDAY IS AN EARLY DISMISSAL DAY! SCHOOL WILL END AT 12:30 FOR STUDENTS!
Please make sure your student has returned their Bayou Bend permission slip to his/her homeroom teacher. No slip, no go! Also, I am not receiving MANY signed tests on Thursday. Your student will get a conduct cut everyday until I see it. These go home on Wednesday!
We are continuing our work with decimals this week in math class. I have copied and pasted the HISD HAPGs from my weekly lesson plan to give you a better idea of what the kids are required to master by Friday.
MATH 5.1B- Use place value to read, write, compare, and order decimals through the thousandths place moving from concrete models and pictorial representations to the symbolic level.
MATH 5.3A- Use addition and subtraction to solve problems involving whole numbers and decimals using a variety of strategies.
MATH 5.4A- Use strategies, including rounding and compatible numbers to estimate solutions to addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems.
