Please make sure you are in 3rd grade section of IXL. Clicking on the title of the IXL should take you to the assignment, but you will still have to log in using your username and password.
PLEASE ONLY DO THE IXL THAT HAS BEEN ASSIGNED TO YOU.
I check the dates when an IXL was done. If you did it much earlier than when it was assigned by me, please redo it. ANYTHING DONE BEFORE THE START OF SCHOOL DOESN'T SHOW UP FOR ME SO IT MAY LOOK LIKE YOU HAVE DONE THE WORK, BUT IT SHOWS UP AS ZERO FOR ME. Redoing it will also help you practice your skills more.
NOTE:
Grade for any weekly IXL assignment completed WITHIN one week AFTER the due date will be updated after 20% deductions. When completed after the due date, PLEASE EMAIL ME. I will not update any IXL grade after this one week grace period.
I would highly encourage the students to start working on their homework early so that if they do have questions, they have time to ask me.

How do mass and force affect motion?
The homework is due on the date mentioned above by 5pm. Grades are entered on 10 point system. So if a student scored 90, it will be entered as 9/10 in quickschools. Grading is done based on 10-point system. If you get 100% score in IXL, Quick school will show it as 10/10. If you get 76%, it is 7.6 in Quickschools. I would highly recommend starting early. This is in case you get stuck, you can ask me in class. I encourage you to ask me in class if you have any problems or difficulties in the IXL assigned.
Please keep in mind that we may do some IXL as classwork at school. If the student is not able to finish then it becomes HW which is due the next morning.

U2 L2 MOTION
We follow HMH INTO SCIENCE curriculum. This is further supported by Daily Review in class as well as IXL.
How does a juggler keep objects in the air? Patterns of motion help the juggler keep the objects in the air. By the end of this lesson, your child will
investigate different patterns of motion
predict motion based on changes made to a pendulum
To prepare your child for this lesson, try this short activity:
With your child, look around the house for objects that can be moved by a gentle force. Ask your child to move the objects and observe them.
Have your child record their observations of motion.
Engage your child by asking these questions:
Did any of the objects move in a way you did not expect?
How many different types of motion did you observe?
Did any of the objects move in a repeated motion?
There are many directions of motion, including up, down, forward, backward, left, and right. The type of motion an object shows depends on the forces acting on it.
Often, objects show a pattern of motion. A pattern of motion is when the motion repeats over and over again. Some examples of a pattern of motion include back and forth, spinning, up and down, and zigzag.
A pattern of motion can be used to predict how an object will move next, but not all motion can be predicted.
Vocabulary for this lesson includes pattern of motion.
Preconception 1: · Objects in motion stop moving on their own.
To address this, ask your child what causes a sled moving down a hill to come to a stop when it reaches the bottom.
Preconception 2: Gravity only affects heavy things.
To address this, discuss with your child what they see on a windy day. Explain that wind is made up of moving air, which is a gas.
