This week  “share class results” is turned on for your READWORKS assignments.  The program automatically marks the multiple choice pieces of the questions.  The comprehension questions must be graded. Even though answers may vary,  READWORKS tries to provide the most accurate answers.  When you access your name from the class list on the program, it will show assignments to do and submitted assignments.  If you click on submitted assignments, your results and the answers will appear once I have checked it and posted the grading.  

Next week, the plan is that I will assign one passage from last week and one passage from this week as assessment pieces.  Just as we use a practice, practice, perform approach in class, I am hoping to do the same online.

This week you will be having fun with a Math Museum Fractions Exhibit.  You can use any items for your museum exhibit. Just make sure that there is something equal about the items you choose (size, shape, colour, theme) and that you add some information to let me know what your gallery piece shows.  I made an exhibit. I used Easter Eggs.

All my eggs are the same size so they show equal parts.  I made 2 fractions out of each but you do not have to do that.  I am sharing a variety of ways to see the math concept. The great part about my exhibit is that I had the opportunity to eat 1/2 of the display 🙂 More importantly though, I had a hands-on experience, enjoyed making the display and learned something.

Have a Terrific Tuesday!
