Week 27

Dear families,

I hope you had a relaxed, joyful and interesting Spring Break with your loved ones.  I had a wonderful time visiting Stonehenge, the Natural Science Museum and London Bridge in the United Kingdom. I'd be happy to share my experience with you. This week we will focus on the following:

1. Use strategies and algorithms, including the standard algorithm to multiply a two-digit number by a one-digit number.
2. Solve one-step and two step problems involving multiplication and division within 100 using strategies based on objects pictorial models, including arrays, area models, and equal groups.
3. Determine the unknown whole number in a multiplication or division equation relating three whole numbers when the unknown is either a missing factor or product.
4. Represent real-world relationships using number pairs in a table and verbal descriptions.
5. Comparing plants and animal life circles
6. Identify and describe the flow of energy in a food chain.
7. Renzulli project
8. Problem of the day and number talk
9. Spiral Up elapsed time problem solving

Have a great week!
