Week at a Glance 10/7

Math- This week we will start our new standard of rounding to the nearest tens and hundreds.  I will have the students draw a vertical number line with endpoints as the two nearest tens or two nearest hundreds.  They will determine the midpoint of the number line and plot the number they are rounding on the number line.  Any number in the "round up zone" (5 ones/5 tens or above) rounds up, anything below rounds down.  See the example below.

Science- We are starting our unit on matter.  Students will focus on the properties of matter this week.  The will use their senses to observe size, shape, color, hardness, and texture of given objects.
