History
This week in history, we will be continuing our new unit on World Lakes. Students will learn about the lakes of Africa and South America. Students will also be taking several short quizzes and creating postcards about a lake of their choosing. We will end the week with lakes of North America.
Students will be learning about the engineering process. We will be discovering independent and dependent variables through the engineering of a “mint mobile”. There will be a short quiz on Tuesday covering the vocabulary words hypothesis, control variable, and experimental variable.
Math
Thank you so much to the parents who volunteered their time to get our math groups up and running. They were a success thanks to you! We will begin our next unit covering order of operations, mental math and the distributive property on Monday.
Language Arts
In writing and grammar this week we will be learning to diagram, identify, and label prepositions and prepositional phrases. We will also be having a test over all of the parts of speech we have studied this year on Friday. In Literature we are enjoying reading Voyage of the Dawn Treader and discussing how characters can change over time. We will be completing the majority of our Spalding notebook set-up and will continue to receive new words on Mondays and Tuesdays, and will take a test over those words on Thursday. Make sure to keep reviewing our newest roots for the quiz on Wednesday and to work on memorizing our poem “Some Opposites (Due next Monday).”
