Hi everyone I miss you and I hope you are staying busy.
Try balanced equation today!
Reviewing balance equations. Remember start with what you know. Both sides must be equal. Here is an example: 4+4+4 = ? x 6 So 4 +4 +4 =12 then what times 6 equals 12. Right the answer is 2. 4+ 4 + 4= 12 and 2 x 6=12. Your answer is 2. Okay you give it a try.

Monday * 12 - 9 = 3 x ?

Tuesday *15 -? = 2 x 3

Wednesday * 18 +18 = 6 x ?

Thursday* 3 x ? = 2+ 10 + 3 =

FUN FRIDAY have a fun day!

Jackson’s Day

Jackson is a golden retriever who likes to play and go on walks but hates getting a bath. Whenever he hears the water running in the tub, he hides behind the couch and growls at his owner, Jennifer. One day, he even ran out the front door when it was bath time. Jackson ran and ran until he found a huge mud puddle, and he jumped right into the murky water. He was completely covered in mud! His golden fur was brown and slimy from head to toe.

He continued his journey away from home hoping to find other dogs in the neighborhood that wanted to play. He did not find any dogs at the local park or near the elementary school where Jennifer always walked him at night. He hoped he would at least find a cat to chase, but there were no dogs or cats in Jackson's path. After an hour of playing, Jackson started to get hungry and decided to walk back to the house.

Meanwhile at home, Jennifer was worried and scared that Jackson might not ever come back. She looked all over the neighborhood and had no luck finding him. She even checked with her neighbors to ask whether or not they had seen Jackson.

A while later, after Jennifer got home, she heard a bark coming from the front door. That bark was familiar. It was Jackson! Jennifer was amazed at how filthy Jackson had gotten in the time he was gone. Before Jackson could eat his dinner, he had to face the bath he had run away from. This time, he listened and took his bath without any trouble. Soon Jackson was clean, but he needed a nap!

(Go to next page to answer the question)

QUESTION : Where did Jackson look for other dogs to play with?

Can you answer this question by turning it around and using an evidence statement? ( You don’t have to turn it in, but see if you can practice answering it like we were doing in school!)

***Remember:

Frontload the evidence ( “As stated in paragraph….”)

Turn the question around

Answer the question!

Reading activity 4/13

pollackh — 2020-04-13 11:33:23 UTC

Read the passage at least 2 times. Then complete the short answer response!
Giant Sequoias
The first giant sequoia trees probably started growing in North America about 180 million years ago. Giant sequoia trees can live more than 3,000 years. For the first 250 years, giant sequoias look like small pine trees. They reach their full height when they are about 500 years old. The giant sequoia can grow as tall as a 25-story building - that is about 250 feet tall! Some trees have grown up to 30 feet wide, or as wide as a three-lane highway. The largest giant sequoia living today is named General Sherman. General Sherman is over 274 feet tall!
There are not many sequoias alive today. Millions of years ago, sequoias grew across North America. Then, the weather turned colder . These trees needed the warm weather to live. Now , when people visit the remaining sequoia forests, they drive and walk over the ground. This makes the ground hard. The sequoias’ roots have a difficult time absorbing the water in the hard ground. This is killing some of the trees. However, some people take home seeds when they visit the sequoia forests. They plant the seeds all over the world. Someday, these seeds may develop into new forests.
QUESTION: Why aren’t there a lot of giant sequoia trees alive today, like there were in the past?
( Start with an evidence statement, turn the question around, and then answer the question. Try to find a sentence or two that you can take directly from the text as evidence)
