Mrs. Caliendo's Chronicles

March 13, 2020

SEL Our SEL focus this week was part 1 of 2, solving problems Students learned: 

• Calming down helps you think so you can solve problems.
• Following steps can help you solve problems.
• Saying the problem without blame is respectful.

Social Science We will continue our inheritance and traits unit.  Students will learn:

• Offspring inherit instructions for each trait from both of their parents.
• Offspring can inherit different instructions from their parents, so offspring may have different traits.
• A family tree shows how members of a family are related.

English Language Arts   Next week, we will be focusing on main idea and details as we begin our unit on Chicago. Students will be making main idea and details rainbow cones.

Don't forget to read for 20 min/20 days and record it in the March log.

Spelling  There will NOT be a new spelling list next week. We will be working with prefixes and suffixes.

Mrs. Caliendo's Math Class We began Unit 6, Geometry. Students will explore the attributes of quadrilaterals. 

  
Practice all of the facts.  A mixed fact quiz will be given on Wednesday, March 18. It is NOT timed! 

If your child should forget their Student Book or their Home Connections workbook at school, they can go into my google math classroom - Calski Math Class from a home computer and print the page they will need to complete for homework.
