6-5-20 Activities

Math:
This week you worked on fractions.  If your assignments are finished, then please practice your basic addition and subtraction facts.  (Flashcards, games, websites we used in class, etc.)

IMPORTANT NOTES:
*Keep in mind, you need to know your basic math facts of addition and subtraction by the time you enter 3rd Grade.   Your goal as a 2nd grader is to be able to do 30 problems in 3 minutes.

*Keep doing those math facts over the summer and you’ll be in great shape for 3rd Grade!  (Hint:  Knowing your addition and subtraction facts will help you greatly with understanding the multiplication and division concepts!)

Day 8: FINAL DAY TO HAVE LIVING THING PROJECT COMPLETED!

*Demonstrate Your Learning and share your project! Finish your project!  Be sure to read and look everything over carefully before you submit it!

Share on SeeSaw Journal so that your friends can check out all your hard work! (This might work after your projects have been "approved." If you're having difficulties seeing your friend's projects, it may be due to the district's restrictions on SeeSaw for privacy. Let me know what you see today, but don't worry if you aren't able to see other's work. I can't see what you see on my end, so it would be helpful to hear back from you.)

 If possible, comment on two or more of your classmates’ projects.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't forget about our Friday Show and Tell from 11:00-11:30.

Day 6: Begin working on Demonstrating Your Learning!

1. Choose the way that you’d like to demonstrate and teach others what you have learned.  

• Ideas may be: Book Creator, Google Slides, Explain Everything, a poster, a paper book, a crafted model of some sort, etc. 

2.  Include the information you gathered on your research planner into your demonstration.

**Hint: The more effort and details you put into your project, the better it will be! (Write detailed sentences, record your voice, do a video demonstration, add graphics, draw pictures, do neat writing / coloring, etc.)

**Keep in mind you will only have today and tomorrow to work on your demonstration. Your project will need to be posted by the end of the day on Friday (June 5).

I want to give you a head's up that we will be having our Friday Show & Tell this week on Friday from 11:00-11:30. I'm hoping you all can make it this week! :) Feel free to bring something to show and tell such as a pet, book, toy, plant that's growing in your backyard, etc.

   Science (Must do!): 
   DAY 5 : CONTINUE RESEARCH  -  (This assignment is the same as Day 4!)
   
   
   1. Miss Mikle worked hard on her research about Ostriches!  She decided to have GRIT and went to every research site from the list above in hopes of learning more about her topic!  Sometimes she got a lot of new information from a website or book. But other times she learned only 1 or 2 new ideas to add to her notes.  
   
   
   • Check out Miss Mikle’s research - linked below!  
   Notice 2 things:  She jotted very few words when she took notes AND she cited her resources! 
   Ostriches - Living Thing Research Planner by Miss Mikle
   
   
   
   2. Continue your research! Use the Research Planner to help focus and organize your learning. Be sure to have 2 or more resources sited on your planner.  
   
   
   **Keep in mind you will only have today to continue your research!  Tomorrow and Thursday you’ll work on your demonstration. Your project will need to be posted by the end of the day on Friday (June 5).
