Math: We will begin Unit 8 of Everyday Math, along with some project based math learning. A new homework packet will be sent home on Monday, so please look out for this packet so it does not get lost. We understand we are approaching the end of the year, but we would like to see students continue to work hard.
Science: Students have finished their Invasive Species project. This week, the students will be presenting their research to their peers.
Reading: We are reading and discussing our historical fiction texts. What is the underlying theme? How can we deepen our interpretation through close reading?
Writing: The students will be developing more complex ideas and then drafting their literary essays next week!
Social Studies: We will continue to learn the 50 states by regions. We will have quizzes on each region. Soon we will tackle memorizing the capital of each US state. Have your child practice by using a fun 50 States geography game on the website. Go to Google Classroom and click on the link.
