Here is what's happenings this week:
Writing: The students are writing personal narratives. Today, they chose their small moment story idea. This week we will focus on creating a story arc and writing with specific details.
Word Study: The students will take their spelling tests this Wednesday.
Social Studies: This week the students will learn about specific explorers. They will learn why those explorers came to the New World, which routes they took, and what impacts their explorations had.
Math: We are moving onto a new math chapter this week! This chapter covers numerical and nonnumerical patterns. They will learn how to write the rule for the pattern using words and an equation. Order of operations will also be covered in this unit. Because the students will be working with patterns using multiplication and division, it is important they know their facts. Please continue working on these at home (flashcards, QuickTables, use a deck of cards, math applications...).
Reading: The students will begin a new research project. Each group will be assigned a new natural disaster that is related to their original natural disaster. For example, the earthquake group will begin researching tsunamis and vice versa. The students will compare and contrast the two weather events.
