Homework - Week of Aug. 27

1. Reading log - Read at least five nights in the coming week. A typical night of reading should be around 20 minutes, but don't let that limit you. Over the course of the year I'd like to see us move away from use of the kitchen timer and toward a more natural stance that has us reading until we feel "full". Or, perhaps, tired.

2. Multiplication word problems - Be sure to show all work. Feel free to use a separate piece of paper if you need to. Just be sure to staple it to the worksheet before turning it in.

3. Nature Interviews - Check the survey you did today in class with an adult at home. Have them check each one they agree with and help you correct any they aren't so sure are accurate. This is due back tomorrow.  Beginning Tuesday, conduct the nature interview/survey with two people. One of the people should fall in the 35-55 age range and the other should fall in the 56+ age range. Remember, our hope is to look for trends (patterns) among different generations in terms of how children use and enjoy the outdoors. This will take a while to complete so do not wait until the very last day. I would love for the forms to be neat and carefully written. This will help us gather our data.

Each assignment is due back on Tuesday, September 4th. 

Have fun!
