Math Aims
This class is in addition to your child's grade level math class. The
goal is to stregthen basic math skills that were not mastered in previous
years. This means that there will be two math lessons each day. I will try to
allow time at the end of my class to help with any homework questions from
their regular grade level class.
All Math assignments must be completed on time, neatly, and in pencil.
Science
Students will be
learning about our changing world by using the Scientific Method.
We will be using the
Scott Foresman Seeing Science in a Whole New Light textbook to focus on
the metric system of measurement, how to conduct an investigation, the make up
of our atmosphere and weather.
Students will learn about surveys, statistics and how Science is applied in
life through “
Science Court
”, a computer program used in-class.
Attendance is a must.
Further application of Science skills will be assessed in the AIMS test in
April.
Science meets 5 days a week. Please refer to the daily assignment sheet to
keep on task with what we are studying, and when assignments are due.
Homework
Students are given class
time for assignments.
Any assignments that are not completed during class become homework. Students
are to write the due dates on their daily assignment sheets.
If an assignment is not completed on time, the student will be assigned a
strike coupon. The Stike requires a parent signature to ensure that you are
informed of the missing assignment. The student may still turn in the
assignment for late credit. 3 strikes in a grading Period disqualifies your
child from Participation in our reward day.
