We borrowed iPads today to research big numbers. Students had a math project. Many are done, but some have to finish up for homework. Link below for details. Due Monday (but I'm willing to give extensions if needed)

Please encourage your child to stay after school if needed for extra help. I usually have extra time after school to help :)

Constellations

 We were talking about constellations in class, and I showed students a website that shows what the sky looked like on the day you were born.

We didn't have enough time to look at all birthdays, so I told students I would post a link to this site on this blog: https://www.skywhen.com/tools/sky-on-any-date

And some more math practice at home - we are trying our best to calculate it in our heads
