It is official, we have covered ALL mathematical standards for this school year. AWESOME!!! So what now? for the remainder of the year we will be working on reviewing standards and pushing the rigor or difficulty.
Week of 4/20: This week we will be working on solving fraction word problems using real world examples. I will have the assignments posed below as well as on the side as always Hello parents and guardians, As a 5th grade team and throughout Cobb County we will be taking grades for students during this new digital instruction. Students will receive grades in ELA and Math. Student grades can only go up! what ever your child got on their 3rd nine-weeks report card is the lowest their grade can be for the 4th nine weeks. Mr. Tromp's grade opportunities Every week I will continue to post assignments on my blog, the assignments will be dated and be a clickable link. I will be using Microsoft Forms pages which are multiple choice or written responses. I will provide 2 to 3 assignments a week for students to work on and 1 quiz. HOWEVER, I will only use ONE of the assignments as their grade. Whichever assignment your child got the best score on during that week will be put into the grade book. I want to provide them with opportunities to bring up their grade. I want to turn those B's into A's : ). I will also have a quiz posted for students to complete on Friday. Once the week is complete, I will remove the assignments from the blog, that way you will only see what assignments are due that week. Summary: Students will have many opportunities to help their grade rise from what ever they had during the 3rd nine-weeks. Students will receive 2 actual grades in the grade book. 1 assignment and 1 quiz. assignments will be clickable buttons as shown below When you click the button for the Forms assignment, it will ask for an email address. This email is your child's cobb email and password that they have been using to log into Clever.
first name. last [email protected]
Hello everyone, below is the Microsoft forms page assignment. It will ask you for a Microsoft email. To log in, your email is the email you have been using to log into Clever. example: [email protected] and the password is your Clever password.
I have gone over emails with students when we began using Clever and digital schooling. If your'e not sure what your school email is please send me a remind, class dojo message, or ask when we are doing our digital lessons. STUDENTS
As you may have already heard, Governor Kemp has officially closed school for the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year. It was a lot to process the though of not getting to be with all of you for the end of the school year :'( . We never really got to say goodbye like we should have. I am sorry that the end of the year was taken away from you during this time. I wanted to let you know that this has been an amazing school year and I have loved being your 5th grade Math, Science, and Social Studies teacher. I loved the jokes we shared, the times I went off topic to share a personal story, and you all being excited to do a lab, activity, and a lesson. This has been one of my favorite years teaching and that is because of you all. WHAT NOW? Although we are not seeing each other in person, we are still learning online. The school day is now a lot shorter. Mrs. Hightower and I teach from 9 to 10:30 Monday- Friday. I make assignments on Flipgrid, Mobymax, and Dreambox. You need to make sure you know how to log into Clever in order to get on those applications. There is still an expectation for learning. Plus its a way for you to see all of your classmates. Parents: There are still a lot of unknowns. Although I am not taking actual grades, the lessons and assignments Mrs. Hightower and I conduct allow us to still monitor how your children are doing and where they need continued growth and support. This is a large time frame where students are out of the classroom and we want to limit the academic gaps as much as possible before middle school. No, unfortunately I do not know how the last 9-weeks report cards will go, but I do have to communicate with administration about the students who have not been doing digital learning. That may play a role, but again I do not know. With that being said, the applications we use are cell phone friendly. The majority of students who we are teaching are using their smart phones. If you have difficulty with attaining technology please reach out to me through my email as there are resources we can provide to help with any difficulties you may be having.
