Tuesday March 24th Summary & Checklist

Good morning 2B! Great job yesterday!

Riddle of the Day – Where can you find cities, towns, shops, and streets but no people?

Math: MobyMax - 5 min on FF/15 min Lessons & #’s Optional +/-

Facts to 20

Read the book about Government and Communities that was assigned to you in Reading A-Z. (10 Mins) Please write down the title and level of your child's book which is found on the Kid's A-Z  'My Assignment' icon.  Once your child listens to the book, reads the book and completes the comprehension quiz, the book will disappear from the 'My Assignment' icon and can be found in the icon called 'The Reading Room'.  Press 'The Reading Room', then press 'Leveled Books', then press the level of your child's book on the alphabet at the top of the screen.  The book will be found in this library of books in alphabetical order.  Sorry I did not mention that your child has done this before but it was a long time ago, they but may need assistance. My apologies for this confusion! 

Writing – Answer one of the prompts below in 5 – 6 sentences.

Please turn the question around. Include an opening sentence,

supporting details and a concluding sentence. Remember to

proofread and check for capitals and periods.

Language Arts/Writing/Social Studies

Social Studies: Objective – Create a chart describing the 3 levels of government. Create a ring for each & label who leads & what each does.You will need a pencil/eraser/piece of blank copy paper/red & blue colored pencils or crayons. Watch the video directions.(My son, the cameraman would not let me do a 2nd take & my make up artist, daughter was unavailable) ; ) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PI10vHUHuc&feature=youtu.beYou can pause the video if you need to. Under State you can write Capital in Hartford.

Copy info from the Levels of Gov Chart 3 column chart above and add more details from the big colored circle chart above. Please be sure to use your neat handwriting & copy the words correctly. Please be sure & do your best! YOU’VE GOT THIS 2B!!!

Religion – Think about a great story someone told you. Jesus was a

great storyteller. To enjoy a story we need to be good listeners.

We need to listen to God’s word. Listening to God’s Word is like

building a house on a rock. A house built on a rock will not fall

down. Watch the video Jesus Was Like Us then read page 155 and

answer the questions.

Info Below is for Parents

I found a great free math site to compliment MobyMax. I think your kids

will love it and it considered the one of the best online sites for math, it is

called DreamBox. Parents can sign their child up for a 90 day free trial. I

would love for us to use it! If you do choose to sign up, please know there

is one major caveat with this program. It is adaptive to students based on their

responses. So, it is very important TO RESIST helping your child with the math

questions (computer help is fine, but not math help). If you help your child and they

answer correctly, the Dreambox program assumes that your child understands and

will move your child forward. Then everything from that point forward will be too

hard for your child and can lead to frustration. If your child answers incorrectly, the

Dreambox program gives hints, and then, if necessary, backs up and gives your

child a tutorial. That’s often when great learning happens!  So, please LET your child

get it wrong, it will help them in the long run. The link is below if you would like to

check it out and consider signing your child up. Participation and sign up are totally

optional! https://www.dreambox.com/at-home
