This morning you have a zoom session with Mr. Borgia at 9:30 and we have a class zoom at 10:30 – bring your reading notebook! The library open zoom is scheduled for 2:00pm for those who want to pop in and see Ms.Sorensen.
Daily planners ready? Let’s get started…

Watch this video below. You will learn how you can find the capacity of many containers as well as a mini challenge for you to think about.
Watch this video below to see some different strategies on solving word problems with capacity.
Copy and paste these slides to your April E-Learning Slideshow.

BookClubs
Today, after doing your agreed-upon reading, you will be posting on your Book Club’s Padlet page. Watch the video today to hear about the Dos and Don’ts of writing on Padlet.

SMART FACT
On April 29, 2004, the National World War II Memorial opened in Washington, D.C., to thousands of visitors, providing overdue recognition for the 16 million U.S. men and women who served in the war. The memorial is located on 7.4 acres on the former site of the Rainbow Pool at the National Mall between the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial. Numerous communities and artists have designed and built memorials to commemorate events in history. If you were to design a memorial to help people in the future learn about this time that we are living through right now, what might it look like? Share your design and thinking on SeeSaw.
