Steps
1. Search out FIVE books 2. Write them down 3. Check to make sure they correspond with your lexile level or guided reading level. 4. Write your name at the top of the your paper list and turn it into Mrs. Koontz Please bring in a baggie of 10-15 small objects that may be insulators or conductors. We will also make mystery circuit boxes next week so please bring in a shoebox if you have an extra one lying around the house.
Don't forget to share the handout from dance regarding performance clothes.
1. Math Exercise 2 page 165 only
2. Read 30 minutes 3. Work on history project, if needed. 1. RAA: read 30 minutes. Tell someone about what you read.
2. Math: Ex. 15 page 153-155 3. History homework: only for students building missions, Aztec temples, etc., at home. Project is due April 15. Solid Figures- Ex. 12 in workbook, pages 146-47 Math challenge- see below Students are busy at work in history, learning research skills through a historical investigation of New Spain. The final project is due April 15. There is some scaffolded at-home reseach homework; however, history class is devoted to crafting student projects at school.. The students are working on about 5 more research note cards before beginning the project in class. Some of this work will be homework. With exception of the students who are building missions, etc., the bulk of the work will be done at school.
Work on completing your FIVE note cards for your history project. Remember to understand the "BIG PICTURE" first. For example, if you are learning about Aztec royalty, learn about the Aztec culture first. Use Factors of Impact to guided you with your reading and what to put on your notecard.
Factors of Impact
Find three circles at home that are differently sized. Trace them onto a sheet of paper.
Math challenge- What is 1/4 the circumference of the earth as measured at the equator? How does that 1/4 circumference compare to the moon's circumference? 1. Study your California Map in preparation for tomorrow's test.
2. Study your highlighted locations and make sure you know the shape of California, so you can successfully build it in the sand. Exercise 10, pages 142-43, and get Angles test signed.
Math challenge- I didn't always look like this, but here are some clues to how I used to appear: My head had 4 right angles, 4 equal sides, and 2 pairs of parallel sides. My eyes were both quadrilaterals , each having 4 equal sides but no right angles. Each eye also had 2 pairs of parallel sides. My shapely nose was a quadrilateral with 4 right angles and 2 pairs of parallel sides. Before my lip job, my mouth was a polygon that had 2 pairs of parallel sides and no right angles. I had 3 strands of hair that were all parallel to each other but perpendicular to the top of my head, and an arrow ran right through my hair forming 12 right hairy angles. The arrow's point was an equilateral triangle that was all sparkly. I didn't have any ears back then because sound had not been invented yet.
Quadrilateral hunt- pick a room in the house and see how many quadrilaterals you can find. Try to find some that no one else will. Try to find at least 5.
Ex. 7 and 8, pages 136-139
Math Challenge- Think of the numbers on the clock in the classroom. Can you recreate them so they are made of only parallel and perpendicular lines? Also, think of the hands on a clock when it is 12:15. Are they perpendicular? Be careful with this one. The hour hand also moves. Are there any times when the hands on the clock are perpendicular? Can you create a shape that has an equal number of acute and obtuse angles? For example, can you draw a polygon that has two acute and two obtuse angles? How about three and three? How about equal acute and right angles? How about equal acute, obtuse, and right angles? What about angles greater than 180 degrees?
History Homework for Wednesday and Thursday:
Wednesday Read and annotated pages 101-103. Contrast Cortes with Moctezuma. Thursday Read and annotate pages 104-106. Write a S.E.E response to collapse of the Aztec empire. S=Statement E=Explanation E=Example Spelling: review words 1-33 on new list as well as the added vocabulary: considerable, tremendous, and enormous. 1. Read pages 116-130 "The Homecoming"
2. Review spelling 1-33 3. Finish Exercise 3 using protractors True or false- a rhombus can have 4 right angles and a rhombus can have no right angles. Explain.
