MyOn homework for Level 2s and 3s

Posted in Classroom | No Comments »

Hi Everyone!

Level 2 and Level 3 parents!  Your child has an assignment that they started this morning that is due on February 8th.  It would be even better if I had all of them submitted by Sunday evening.

Level 2s read 3 books on Mercury, Venus, and Earth.  They have 25 questions to answer based on those 3 books.  Most students are typing out their answers by copying the questions into the writing section and then writing their answers.  PLEASE REMEMBER TO PUSH THE SAVE BUTTON!!!  The save button is at the top of the page.  If your student chooses to handwrite their response, that is fine too.

Level 3s read 2 books on The Mesozoic Era.  They are writing a 3 paragraph essay on the comparisons and contrasts between the Triassic and Cretaceous periods. They need to discuss the similarities and differences between dinosaurs, how the earth was, plants, events etc.  It may be helpful for them to do their 2nd paragraph 1st to help them set up their beginning, 1st paragraph, and their closing paragraph-the 3rd one.  All of their expectations and clues to the set up are on their instruction page.  I have no problem if you sit your child down and go over it with them.  This piece of writing is going to be printed for our conferences next week and their 3rd grade file that gets passed along to upper el.

 

Happy reading and writing!

 

Level 1s will have their turn on the computers with an assignment next week.  3rd graders will get another assignment and Level 2s will do regular work cycle off their work charts like the Level 1s did today.
