Remember that it will be a short week next week! No school on Friday. But up until then, here’s what we’re working on:
Writing: We will be drafting opinion essays. We will be learning about the most important parts of the piece – introductory, transition, and concluding sentences.
Reading: Students will finish revising and editing their personal folktales and begin publishing them.
Grammar: Noun week! Common, proper, concrete, abstract, plurals, and possessives!
Science: Further investigations into tectonic plates.
Social Studies: Finishing up our Ice Age/Beringia Project and beginning a short unit on maps.
Math: Beginning a unit on fractions. We will start by building an understanding of fractions as division problems.
