Here is what's happening this short week and next:
Writing: Our next unit is an informational writing unit. The students will be writing about a specific cause of the Revolutionary War. We will be spending this week and next building background knowledge on this topic. The students will need to know a lot about the causes before they can begin writing about it.
Word Study: All tests will be January 10.
Social Studies: The students will be learning about how life was during the colonial times. We will also spend some time learning about the causes of the Revolutionary War. We will build on what they are learning during writing.
