These last two months have seriously flown by! Wishing you all a fantastic spring break filled with lots of rest and relaxation! 💗
HERE'S WHAT HAPPENED LAST WEEK💡
MATH:
Fifth grade math was again compromised a bit last week due to testing. We were able to squeeze in a little time together and we continued to focus on improving our problem solving skills.
READING WORKSHOP:
During literacy time last week we continued working in our small groups, focusing on nonfiction reading skills.
WRITERS' WORKSHOP:
Our Opinion Writing unit continued last week. Students worked on revising and editing their introductions, body paragraphs, and conclusions. We met with writing partners to elicit feedback and we proofread for spelling, capitalization, and punctuation.
SOCIAL SCIENCE:
In social studies last week we continued our focus on The Bill of Rights. We learned all about the rights protected in the Fourth and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution.
THIS WEEK'S HIGHLIGHTS📌
MATH:
We will shift gears and use this upcoming "broken" week to focus on a fun and exciting hands-on algebra program!
READING WORKSHOP:
We will finish up our nonfiction small groups.
WRITERS' WORKSHOP:
This week in writing students will publish their opinion essays and share their work during our next Gallery Walk.
SOCIAL STUDIES:
Social studies this week will focus on a continuation of our Bill of Rights study.
UPCOMING EVENTS 📆
