Bonus Activity: What color are the rocks where you live? With an adult, go outside and find a spot where you can see rocks and dirt — maybe in a park or in someone’s yard. Pick up some rocks. Take a close look. The rocks won’t all be the same color, but is there one color that’s more common than others? If the place you live was named for its rocks, what would it be called?

Learning Objective: When making inferences, it is important that we are able to support our thinking with evidence from the text! What students will do: Students will read pages 330 – 335 to finish “Aliens from Earth”. They will be tasked with supporting the inference that invasive species can harm existing ecosystems using a specific example from the text.
Read “Aliens from Earth: When Animals and Plants Invade other Ecosystems” pages 330 – 335 in your online REACH student textbook. Available online through Canvas in MyNGConnect.
Log-in to Seesaw and respond to the activity for Wednedsay 4/22 ELA Task:
Read pages 330 - 335 of "Aliens from Earth" in your online REACH textbook. After reading the article, someone might infer that bringing an "alien" or new species to a new land can cause damage or harm to the existing ecosystem. Your job is to provide evidence to support this opinion. Choose one invasive species from "Aliens from Earth" and provide details to support the idea that invasive species can be harmful to existing ecosystems. Make sure to use RACE to respond!

Have a nice day!
In our class meeting on Friday, we went over the new schedule that we will be following starting Monday.
The reason this schedule was created by the District is because now that the schools will be closed for the rest of the year and we still have 10 weeks of school left, we wanted to make sure that all students were still getting a quality education while maintaining a daily schedule of learning. We want them to be prepared for the 5th grade! The schedule starts today!
School Schedule Starting April 20, 2020
9:00-11:30 Math, ELA, Science lessons will continue as outlined on our web site and Google classroom. In addition, we will be meeting as a class from 10-10:45 on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday to present and discuss our lessons, ask questions and conduct our class business. This is part of the daily student schedule. All students are expected to attend all meetings. They should have their schoolwork and computers with them during these sessions.

- What students will do: Students should be able to identify features of a protractor and read the measurement and classification of angles.
Watch how to use the protractor: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zbElnUZ3KRfBhIzE5bTgmlryKz5Phjgf/view?ts=5e9cf222

ELA
Learning Objective: Identifying the structure of a text (how it is put together) can often help us understand what it is mostly about. For example, steps in a process are usually numbered from beginning to end. This tells the reader to follow directions in that order. Along with text features (table of contents, bold words, headings etc.) text structure helps us quickly navigate a text for specific information.
What students will do: Students will learn about “problem and solution” text structure. They will read the text “Save the Armadillo” and identify the main problem and some solutions.
- Log-in to Seesaw 4/20 ELA Task

Angle Hunter
- Learning Objective: Angles are geometric shapes that are formed wherever two rays share a common endpoint. They can be understood as the rotation of one ray away from the other, much like the hands on an analog clock.
What students do: Look around your environment and find items that meet the criteria: Right angles = 90 degrees, acute angles are less than 90 degrees and obtuse angles are more than 90 degrees. Your evidence does not have to be the exact angle in the picture but it does have to meet the criteria. Remember, the corner of a piece of paper is 90 degrees

https://zoom.us/j/97858142271?pwd=eUQwSHVFdFpTa0Jmb0VwSGcxbTRIdz09
Math
Lesson Objective: For a given rectangle, if the length and width are doubled, then the perimeter is also doubled, but the area is quadrupled. If the dimensions are tripled, the perimeter is tripled but the area grows by a factor of 9 (that is, 3 • 3). This occurs because the perimeter is a linear measurement, while area is a square measure.
What students will do: Students consider what happens to the area and perimeter of rectangles when the dimensions (length and width) are doubled and tripled. They explore other multiplicative increases, working toward a generalizable rule.
- Helpful Resources:

Learning Objective: Authors can use different genres (fiction/non-fiction) to write about the same topic. Comparing different texts across different genres, can help us better understand a topic.
What students will do: Students will compare the science fiction text, “The Fungus that Ate my School” and the non-fiction science experiment, “Mold Terrarium”. They will think about reasons for writing each text and reasons why someone would want to read them.
- Resources:
“Mold Terrarium” by The Science Explorer pages 305 - 311 in your online REACH student textbook. Available online through Canvas in MyNGConnect.
“The Fungus that Ate my School” by Arthur Dorros pages 290 – 301 in your online REACH student textbook. Available online through Canvas in MyNGConnect.
- Assignment: Write a response in Google classroom to the following question:
After reading both texts, would YOU have gone inside a school that is overgrown with mold?" Use the science fiction story and the science experiment to support your thinking. Try to use vocabulary from the text as well. Use RACE to respond!

*Many of the resources that are linked to assignments below will require students to sign in to MyNGConnect through Canvas and access their REACH textbook online.*(see “How do I “ web page on our website)
Learning Objective: Understanding the author’s purpose, or reason, for writing a text can help us comprehend what it is mostly about. Often we have to infer (make educated guesses) the author’s purpose and support our thinking with evidence from the text.
What students will do: Students will begin reading, “Mold Terrarium” from their REACH student textbooks. This text is a science experiment that gives step by step instructions on how to set-up and observe the process of growing your own mold. Students will read, make inferences, and respond to questions about author’s purpose.

Hi Everybody!!
I created a new page on our website called ”How do I...?” This page gives directions and videos on how to get to many of the computer programs we will be using. Check it out!!!
Also, I got a suggestion from one of the parents that it would be easier to get all the lessons and activities in one location. So, starting tomorrow, I will put them on both the web site and Google Classroom. However, the ELA pieces need to be completed in Google classroom.
I will be giving directions about how to use zoom this afternoon so we can have a class meeting on the computer some time on Friday. Look for an email with directions.

Greetings! Hope you had a nice weekend.
This week I am going to change it up a bit. We will continue with our lessons we left off at school. So, we will continue with Measurement and start Unit 5 in ELA. These will include videos, zoom chats with me, worksheets and other things. In addition, we will have Mr. Ryals Daily challenge and some music and art. Maybe some read aloud.
So for today, Start your iReady Math and Reading, Read 20 minutes, participate in the challenge and finish the last day of the Crunch Math. I will be monitoring your iReady, so email me if you need any help. I will also be contacting you. We will have a video chat sometime this week so we can all get together. I will arrange it later this week. Look forward to seeing you!
