6th Grade Math: Week 29
DAILY FORMAT for math:Each day students must complete the short Entry Task, which is the Maintenance review assignment in Google Classroom. Then, they will watch videos in Khan Academy for direct instruction. The videos are also short, and each day should be less than 20 minutes of video. Next, students will have “In-Class Activities” assigned on most days, which are DUE THE SAME DAY. These exercises are short also, with no day having more than 15 questions. Finally, students may also have a short homework (HW) assignment DUE THE FOLLOWING DAY of class.No specific homework will be assigned on Thursday besides study/review for tests/quizzes, so students will have an opportunity to get one-on-one help from me and also to rest and relax from online school over the weekend.
