Good morning,
I hope you had a great weekend and enjoyed the sun. I also hope you took advantage of the beautiful weather to go outside and get some fresh air.
Here are some suggested activities for the week of April 20th-24th.
Math
You can spend some time each day working on Dreambox. This is a great resource to learn new skills and keep your math abilities sharp. When you start a lesson, it is important to finish the lesson before moving on to other lessons.
This week, I am posting a question of the week to try. I will have the answer to this problem posted on Monday, April 27th. The problem can be found at:
For student with limited access to technology, options could include board games, cards, Yahtzee, crib, puzzles, sudoku, etc.
Another option in Math could be to practice multiplication facts. A great way to learn these is by using flash cards if you have them. Students could create their own flash cards. Long multiplications are also an option: multiplying 2 by 1, multiplying 2 by 2, multiplying 3 by 1, multiplying 3 by 2.
Science
For those of you who enjoyed the activity on birds last week, you can check out the activities at :

(The slideshow is great with some cool links for videos.)
If birds are not your thing, don't forget that ASD-N has a new STEAM challenge this week. This week’s activity can be found at:

(This week is all about wind power. Build a pinwheel, a kite or an anemometer. Many options are available on this site for you.)
**If you did not do the STEAM challenge last week, you could check out the week 1 challenge and do some work with plants.
I have given you many options! Pick what interest you!
Have a great week!
