Hello IA Families,
Family Night is this Thursday Feb. 10, 2011 at 5pm. Beginning at dismissal on Thursday we will be selling raffle tickets for some great spa gift certificates values at $75. You can buy one ticket for $1 or 6 tickets for $5. Winners will be announced at Family Night! Also, we have a four day weekend this coming weekend, meaning we do not have school on Friday Feb. 11 and Monday Feb. 14.
This week in class the students will be reviewing fraction concepts and finishing up their fraction finale projects. Most students have turned in their completed work, and I have been so impressed by the creativity and thoughtfulness of their work. We will also spend some time this week reviewing adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing with positive and negative numbers.
Students are moving into the proposal portion of their "problem solving project". Up until now, the students have been working mainly in Michael's class on this project. This week, however, they will begin developing a business proposal for their solutions. This will involve making time lines, gathering data on resources needed, and projecting some statistical outcomes, all of which they will be working on in my classroom throughout the next several weeks.
See you Thursday
