Math:
 1. We worked on modeling multiplication decimals. Students need to explain how the models work to an adult at home and get a signature.  
2. Complete math boxes worksheet (p. 102) and
3. Number stories/magnitude estimates worksheet (p. 45/52)

English Language Arts:
We continued to work on graphic organizers for writing narratives.
1. Make sure all six graphic organizers for conflict and setting are complete.

Science:
Take SHORT notes- a few words only- on the plant cell organelles. Remember that plant cells have some of the same type of organelles as animal cells, so don't forget to add mitochondria, nucleus, and cell membrane to your plant cell organelle notes.

HELP!!!!  One of our parents lost a LARGE amount of cash and a blank check in our room last night at the 5th grade parent meeting. Please ask your children if they saw that money around the classroom. Thanks so much.

Cannon homeroom families: Please email me directly with your best email contact information because our class room parent, Kathy Canonico (Sean and Sammy's mom) needs to email you about setting up class parties, etc. Thanks! Here's my email & I'll forward your emails to Mrs. Canonico.

Finally, we're having a major earthquake drill tomorrow. Please send water and a hat with your kiddos tomorrow so that they stay hydrated/cool  while we're outside for an extended period of time practicing this critical drill. Thanks in advance.
