Good Morning -
For Wednesday math, we are going to review Fraction and Decimal Number Lines. We learned that fractions and decimals are numbers that have values less than one. But we also learned about Mixed Numbers. Mixed Numbers have a whole number and a fraction or a whole number and a decimal.
Fraction: 2/4
Mixed Number: 3 2/4
Decimal: .3
Mixed Number: 4.3
Also, if you remember, we learned to reduce fractions to simplest form by dividing. So the fraction 2/4 reduced or simplest form becomes 1/2
On Seesaw, there are 2 assignments. Emoji Fraction Number Line: Simplify and Decimals On A Number Line

After leaving Monique's party, Jessie went to Wes' house to tell him about Monique's plan to steal his dogwalking business. Wes was upset and looked very angry, like a cobra ready to pounce. Jessie and Wes planned to do something about it on the following Monday. When Jessie got home from Wes' house, her Aunt Beatrice was very angry with her for leaving the party without telling her. Her Aunt Beatrice then grounded her, telling she couldn't work with Wes anymore. Jessie was very upset, but her cousin Ann told her that she could help get out of being grounded.

Science -
We have been learning about Spiders. Yesterday, we made a diagram of a Spider's Anatomy. Today we are going to read and learn about how a Spider uses its spinneret to make webs to catch their prey. Once they catch their prey in the web, then they use their fangs to inject the prey with poison that turns the prey's insides to liquid. Then the spiders drinks this liquid. All spiders carry poison.
