This week: fractions and self-esteem



We are beginning a new chapter in math that will help us use fractions and ratios. We'll practice comparing equivalent fractions, putting fractions in order, and even converting fractions to mixed numbers! I know you must be excited! Of course we'll be playing games in groups and using the world around us to practice.


In literacy, we'll be thinking about the meaning of self-esteem. Students will do a self inventory, then answer: What is the relationship is between your self-esteem and the choices you make? It's a big question that we should all consider when preparing for the next big step in our lives.
