May 4th- May 8th Lesson Plans

May 4th- May 8th 

This week’s advice: 

• Pay attention to WHERE assignments are located. 
• If there are instructions on the google classroom, be sure to read them before completing any assignment!
• Go in order of the lesson plans! You all work at a different pace, so this is very important!
• Check your lesson feedback. Some of the feedback in general, but some feedback I ask you to fix/ change/ redo assignments! 
• For math this week, I created a document of the area model strategy and the partial products strategy for you to use as a reference!
