What did the cow say on Christmas morning? ...... Moooooeey Christmas

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. This Thanksgiving I am thankful for being able to teach such wonderful kids and be surround by so many great people. Thank you for everyone who has made Fallon my new home!

This week I will be sending home quizzes for 3rd,4th, and 5th. Just remember to sign them quick and send them back with your students. This just allows me to know that you are seeing their work and we are all on the same page!


3rd- This week we are starting to learn how to round numbers to the nearest 10's and 100's using place value.


4th- We are starting to learn different multiplication strategies. This week we are going to dive into learning the partial product strategy.

5th- This week we are starting to learn about input and output tables and learning how to plot ordered pairs on a coordinate plane.

Projects- This weekend students are picking out their influential Revolutionary figure. We will start to do research on these characters so that students can start understanding their figure. Students will pick a influential character from the Revolutionary War. George Washington, Paul Revere, Molly Pitcher are a few ideas. Students will pick their character at school and than their final presentation is to dress up as their character and recite a 2 minutes speech from that characters point of view. Students will have to come up with their own costumes for their character! Thrifty Fines will have lots of options for everyone.

Why did they let the turkey join the band? .... A: Because he had the drumsticks

Holidays are here! Remember that we only go to school on Monday and Tuesday this week.

3rd Grade- I will be sending home quizzes on Monday please send them back signed on Tuesday. For the short week this week we are going to continue to work on Elapsed time. If students could practice their math facts over break that would be awesome. IXL F.1-F.16 is all multiplication facts.

4th Grade- I will be sending home quizzes on Monday please send them back signed on Tuesday. We made gallon men last week in math! Ask your child about how awesome they turned out! We are going to still work on converting metric and customary units this week.  We still need lots of practice on this. If students get extra time over the break have them repeat some IXL for extra practice. N.3-N.13! 

5th Grade- I will be sending home quizzes on Monday please send them back signed on Tuesday. This week we are going to continue to work on order of operations and review diving by 10's, 100's, and 1000's. If students get time over break remember to study multiplication math facts! 

4th grade projects- We are off to a great start with our Revolutionary project. Students have all been working so hard. I hope everyone got a chance to see the hats, powdered wigs, and bonnets we made at school. This next week students will research more important individuals during this time period.  Our final project will be students participating in a "Wax Museum". This means students will pick one influential figure during this time period and dress up and recite information from that figures point of view during this time. If students would like to bring their own headphones to watch individual videos on their influential figure that would be great!
