Hi All,

What a week! We completed our first social studies rotation and it was full of hands on learning!   Today we also took our first math assessment on pearsonrealize.com.  Make sure to show your parents the site and your grade.  We will start our math rotations on Tuesday and science rotations the following week.  As if that isn't enough we also had our first AR reward today.  All those on track with 3% of their goal received nachos at lunch.

• Remember to figure out your weekly percentage:
• 
  
• Yearly goal X weekly percentage needed = 
• 
  
• Example:  If my yearly goal was 80 and I needed 6% of my goal on Monday;
• 
  
• 80pts X .06 = 4.8 pts needed for this Monday.
• 
  
• Every Monday the percentage needed increases by 3.

Have a great weekend!!!
