Welcome back! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Due to last week's absence, this week's Class News update will only contain highlights for the week ahead. Look for a regular edition of our Class News next week! 💗

THIS WEEK'S HIGHLIGHTS📌
MATH: 
We will begin Chapter 4: Multiplying and Dividing Fractions and Mixed Numbers. This week, students will practice multiplying proper fractions and solving real world problems.

​READING WORKSHOP:

Our reading focus for the next three weeks will shift to Notice & Note: Nonfiction. This unit begins with creating the questioning stance. Students will be asked to read with the following questions in mind:
What surprised me?
What did the author think I already knew?
What changed, challenged, or confirmed what I already knew?
"Reading with these Big Questions in mind encourages a critical, attentive stance and develops habits of mind that-if we can instill them in our students-may help them deal more attentively and intelligently with the nonfiction texts they will encounter throughout their lives." 

WRITERS' WORKSHOP::
This week we will finish up our Personal Narrative unit. Students will spend time proofreading, conferring, and publishing. We will also hold our second Gallery Walk on Friday!
​
SCIENCE:
Our study of the American Revolution will continue this week! Students will examine the Loyalist, Patriot, and Neutralist perspectives, and consider each argument for or against declaring independence.
