This morning Mrs. Hordyk's praying mantis egg hatched! We have been "egg sitting" for a few days (our room has more sun and is warmer). So far there have been 4 mantis nymphs emerge, we will see what happens overnight!
We also learned a new math game. Students set up a 4x4 array, and then look in the cards for any multiplication or division sentences they recognize (for example, by finding a 3, 4 and Q I can make the sentence 12/4=3, or 4x3=12). Ask your student what the most challenging part of the game was.
This afternoon the class and I had a conversation about digital citizenship, in particular about privacy and thinking about the information we read to decide if it is fact or opinion. We discussed what information can be shared online, why privacy is important, and how we should use our email accounts. For more activities and information that you can share with your student, please see

Quick Reminders!
Have a wonderful evening!
