This Week In Our Classroom...

Literacy:  This week students will continue reading their assigned novel.  Each day, they read a portion of the book, write a brief summary, and discuss the character development within the text.  During writing, students will work on a character analysis essay which incorporates text evidence from the book.

Science: We will finish our theme set this week and students will be tested on Wednesday.  It is an open book test, please encourage your child to use the book to double check answers!  It is a very simple way to guarantee a good score on the test.  Following the test, students will begin the lab portion of the unit- studying rocks, soil, and landforms.  Much of this work will be completed in their Science Notebook.

Math:  We will continue to plow through Unit 4 in our curriculum.  Students will develop multiplication strategies and practice finding the area and perimeter rectangles.  Please expect corresponding Home Links as homework.
