Math
We began our Geometry unit today with an estimation game: I showed a bunch of angles and students had to use deduction to estimate their value. Feel free to draw random angles this weekend and have your child do some estimation.

Students are getting closer to wrapping up their work with Mme Wackett (dramatic monologues). In my class, students read our final short story today. For homework (due Monday), students will write a literature log explaining the symbolism in the story. In the letter, I would like 2 quotes (with context and commentary), and I would like it to be at a standard level of language. One page single-spaced maximum.

Math: students must write a story about an equilateral triangle. In their stories, they must include as many geometry terms possible: rotational symmetry, line symmetry, polygon, regular polygon, irregular polygon, congruent, edge, vertices, equilateral...158 - 320 words. I will be picking up the story AND their brainstorming on Monday (please don't write it in the notebook).
