Here's what is happening this week:
Writing: We will continue to work on their literary essays. This week we will focus on gathering pieces of evidence to support their thesis.
Reading: We will practice answering and asking questions that are within, beyond, and about the text. Within the text questions ask the students to retell or summarize the story. Beyond the text questions ask students to make inferences, predictions, and connections. About the text questions ask students to think about the author's craft, analyze the story, or critique the story.
Word Study: The students will test on Wednesday. Contracts are also due by the end of word study on Wednesday.
Social Studies: This week we are learning about our state and local government. Their government chapter test will be on Friday.
Math: The students will be working on rotational symmetry projects. They will create figures that show rotational symmetry.
Important Reminders:
