FRIDAY FINISH and FIND!

Another week comes to an end and next week it will be June already! I sure miss all of you and wish it was a 'normal' school year, but we'll keep doing what we need to do to stay safe. Starting next week, our Zoom schedule will change a bit. We won't have a Thursday morning Zoom anymore, but I am going to do a Zoom every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday until the end of the school year. Here is the new schedule starting on Monday, June 1st:

 Monday Zoom - 10:00-10:45
Tuesday Zoom - 10:00-10:45
Wednesday Zoom - 1:30-2:15

#3             WEEKEND WORD WORK

For Tuesday's Zoom, your job is to find 20 COMPOUND WORDS.  These are words that are made from 2 words that are joined to make a new word.

example:   foot + ball = football
                  fire + place = fireplace
                  some + thing = something

IMPORTANT : Each of the two parts must be a separate word by itself if you take the compound word apart.
A word like happiness is NOT a compound word because happi and ness  are NOT separate words by themselves.

Be a superstar jellybean searcher and everything will somehow become as fireproof as a rainbow in a thunderstorm!
( I guess my sentence is a bit of a silly nutcracker, but if you eat cheesecake it will seem more like a bluebird in a rainstorm! 😏😉) LOL
____________________________________
#4     Over the weekend, I hope you will READ each day to your adult and enjoy some 'together time'.💙💚 Find some favourite books or go back to Scholastic Learn at Home 👆 and pick a new article or story to read. I love all the interesting things there are to learn about there!
_____________________________________
#5     Have you checked out Mystery Doug Science lately? There are a couple of new ones in the past few weeks, so you may want to click that link and see what he's up to.

Zoom, Work & Play Thursday

                                                                       
Hi there my little Worker Bees! I hope you all have a fantastic day and try your best to BEE your best!⭐⭐

Let's start off with a funny little video song that my sons used to drive me crazy singing when they were younger. Maybe you've heard it before too, but it's fun to listen again!



Now you'll probably have that song stuck in your head all day! hahaha 😉

-------------------------------------------------------------

All right, time for some work! Let's begin with MULTIPLICATION MATH.

Continue in your duotangs and finish pages 22 and 23

If you practice skip counting by 2's, 3's, 4's, 5's and 6's (up to 6 x 9) this will really help you learn your TIMES TABLES ( that means Multiplication Facts).

Prodigy Math can always be a choice when you're done your Math workbook. 

-------------------------------------------------------------
Next, let's get some of your ALL ABOUT     (your name )____
WRITING done. Remember... it's easier to do a few good sentences each day rather than having to do them all at one time. 

If you need the sentence 'starts' again, here they are...

 I want you to send this to me when you are done so please work on it this week and finish by Friday. Put the title at the top of your page and then copy and complete each sentence. Think about your answers before you write them - try not to just write the easiest thing you think of!

When we multiply, it is the same as adding groups of the same number together.  

2 X 5 = 10     means the same as      5 + 5 = 10

The  X  means GROUPS OF 

Do these practice questions in your notebook. BE NEAT!
1.   3 x 2 =   🔻🔻  +  🔻🔻 + 🔻🔻           

2.   1 x 5 =

5.   3 x 3 =                         

6.   2 x 5 =                         
      
7.   4 x 2 =                          

8.   4 x 3 =

New Writing - I want you to send this to me when you are done so please work on it this week and finish by Friday. Put the title at the top of your page and then copy and complete each sentence. Think about your answers before you write them - try not to just write the easiest thing you think of!
