Welcome back and Happy (almost) December! I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your families. I enjoyed meeting with each of you during conferences!!! Thank you so much for your time! Due to last week's absence, this week's Anderle Adventures blog post will only contain highlights for the week. Look for a regular edition of the Anderle Adventures next week! :)
THIS WEEK'S HIGHLIGHTS:
MATH:
We will begin Unit 5: Fractions, Decimals, and Percents, this week in math. Students will examine mixed numbers and equivalent fractions. We will also compare and order fractions.
READING WORKSHOP:
Students will continue to explore nonfiction, and we will be using Notice & Note: Stances, Signposts, and Strategies over the next few weeks. This week will focus on the importance of "stance," and we'll begin our exploration of several nonfiction signposts.
PERSONALIZED LEARNING:
We're in the middle of a WEX transition, so why not begin Personalized Learning! This week, students will begin our 15 Day Challenge: What Have You Always Wanted to Learn or Master...(In 15 days)?
SCIENCE:
Our Human Body in Motion unit will continue this week! Students will design and create moveable limbs, and examine reflexes and reactions.
