Regina Public Schools has purchased the right for Grades 4-8 students to have access to the textbooks online. I have attached a link to the Pearson etext site on the right hand menu. I put each student's login information  in your own DropBox folder.  

HERE ARE THE ONLINE ASSIGNMENTS FOR THIS WEEK: These are due Sunday night.
 
TYPING WEB: Beginner Course -> Lesson 3 -> The Bottom Row Keys 

Conceptua Math: Big Idea 1 -> Understanding Fractions. Complete the fourth folder F-4 (Compare With Benchmarks on a Number Line) There are 4 lessons in this folder (F1.4.1, F1.4.2, F1.4.3, F1.4.4).
REMEMBER: when you are logging in, the 'customer name' is my email - jporritt@accesscomm.ca, and your login does not have the 205 on the end.

I will give you some class time to work on these assignments, but you will also need to be working on them from home. Do not leave them until the last minute.
