Happy Friday! What a beautiful day to start off the weekend! :)
Here's a look at what we did this week:
Math - We spent most of the week this week focusing on preparing for our Unit 5 test today and studying our math facts. Students reviewed in a variety of ways including playing a fun multiplication game and having a math facts battle. The final student even battled me and I lost! (I think the judge may have been biased :)) Make sure students are continuing to study their facts at home - I suggest making flash cards!
Science - In science this week we learned how to make a line plot to represent data that we collected in our last science lesson. Students were able to see how graphs can help easily display information so scientists can come to a conclusion about an experiment.
Social Studies - Social studies this week was spent reviewing for the test that we will have on Monday. The test was pushed back so make sure students are studying over the weekend!
Writing - Our new writer's workshop has finally kicked off and we are off to a great start! Students were able to choose from two different topics: Students should/should not be required to wear a school uniform and our class should/should not have a classroom pet. Now students are forming their opinions and backing up their arguments!
Reading - The Chocolate Fever tests have been graded and will be returned in students' Friday folders. I am happy to say that most did very very well on this! In the rest of reading this week we focused on finding textual evidence to support our answers to comprehension questions. Next week we will return to our reading textbook.
I hope everyone is able to enjoy the warm weather today!
As always, let me know if you have any questions/comments/concerns.
