3. Practice for at least 20 minutes on Prodigy: I have set up a new pre-assessment for our next unit to determine how much you already know. Please work through the questions independently/on your own so I am able to get an accurate understanding of your strengths and weaknesses. If you want to know if you are done the pre-assessment you can send me a message on Google Hangouts!
4. Optional Math: Yesterday was a toughy! If anybody did it I would love to see it. Today’s problem is around some “Lost Data” - Students need to fill in the blanks to figure out which section of the pie chart or bar graph belongs to which group of students - There is 40 students total and they are given 1 out of the 4 numbers. It’s a bit of a puzzle! - Click here for the problem.
SOCIAL STUDIES (1 hr) (Online):
1. Read global stories on Epic!. There are 32 stories shared on Epic! for you. You can choose a few to read that interest you.
2. After reading you can answer the following questions on the Flipgrid:
- Did you know that more than 7 billion people share this planet with us?
- What did you notice that was similar to your life? What did you notice that was different?
- (If tech limitations make Flipgrid an issue, these questions can be written down and scanned or emailed directly to me).
