Hey 4th Graders!
I will be using this website and our Google Classroom site to post links for our class during the school closure. You can email, text or call at any time, but I will be blocking out 9AM - 11AM Monday - Fridays as office hours. This means I will be online during this time or able to respond quickly if you have questions or just want to talk.
I will continue to update this site and add more links later today and tomorrow.
COMMENTS:
I had to remove the comment bar because it limited us to only 10 comments. Please use the Forum to ask questions or talk to one another. Scroll down to see what assignments you have for today. Email me if you have questions.

Hey 4th Graders!
Math:
The next two weeks we'll be using Mathspace. Directions for logging in can be found on Google classroom or on the Links page on this website. We were working on adding and subtracting fractions before the school closure, but we'll be putting that on hold and starting on decimals for the next two weeks. There is an assignment for each day beginning tomorrow. The assignments should not take very long. Each is due the day they are assigned, but you can turn them in a few days late. Stay on top of it and get in the habit of doing 1 assignment per day! If you need help use the icons in the upper right corner. See the picture below. If you need extra help, use Khan Academy or email me with questions.

How to join a new class in Google Classroom
Saturday March 21
Hey! I know it is Saturday, but I wanted to let students know that I have reassigned some of the tasks on Mathspace that some students did not complete or needed extra practice on. If you created your Mathspace account after Wednesday, you may have missed the first task or maybe you just didn't complete a task or maybe you need extra practice on some concepts. Students that completed all tasks with 75% or greater, won't see any new tasks or things reassigned. Please email me and let me know how this goes for you.
Another note. When you do assignments on Nearpod or any other program that asks you to enter a name, make sure you use your real name! I don't know who big dog$$$ is so I cannot give that person a grade. Thanks
