Check out what we are learning in...
- Math- All classes have begun the fractions unit. Students will be working to learn concepts such as equivalent fractions, mixed numbers and improper fractions, adding and subtracting fractions. Talk with your student about what they are learning in math!
- Reading- Students will have their first book club meeting this week. They should have the assigned reading finished before their group meets as well as having ideas they can discuss during the meeting. We will talk about expectations during the book club meetings this week.
- Writing- We will continue our Opinion writing unit this week. We will work on skills such as creating a thesis statement, finding reasons and evidence to support our opinion, organization of our writing, making our introduction interesting and ending with a closing. Students have already started working on short paragraphs to practice the skills we have learned so far!
- Science/Social Studies- We will begin the electricity portion of our unit in science this week.
- Word Study: Students will take their test on Monday and then we will take a break from word study for the rest of the week.
