The 411 for the week!What 2nd and 5th Period classes will be up to this week:
This week we are working on multiples and fractions.. and we will start figuring out who the witch doctor is? A little back tracking but then its full steam ahead!
BLOG QUESTION 2nd and 5th Period:
On Santa’s flight from the North Pole all the way around the world back again to the North Pole takes him 3 hours and 15 minutes. Super man can do it in 35 mins. Who can fly faster? And also how much more time does it take Santa to make the trip than it does Superman?
Here is what is cooking for 4th Period:
This week we will be going over multiplying mixed numbers a bit then working on converting fractions to decimals and back and forth.. kinda like a tennis match! Pay attention so that you do NOT get dizzy!
BLOG QUESTION FOR 4th Period:
If Santa has a bag full of gifts for all the good girls and boys... hmmm does that count Jose and Carols? Anyhow... Elf Cammy was counting all the presents and she found the sum of the presents that were left in Santa’s bag to be 3,456 presents. Of all those presents, Elf Ayla found that 525 were wrapped in red paper, 234 were in blue, and 1,123 were covered with pictures of santa, and the rest of the presents were covered with candy canes. Your Elf question is: How many presents were covered with candy canes? You are to also make a fraction for all presents... for example how many out of 3,456 are covered in red paper? Write a fraction that represents each different wrapped present.

You too have great power.. Be responsible, you can do great things! AND Remember, as always, you are amazing, incredible people with the whole world waiting to be changed by YOU!

Mr. Rott
