This week was another week filled with poetry and literacy through written works. Students are creating and organizing poems that will be turned into poetry bound books. In class, we are promoting correct spelling, so I ask that you help students identify words that they need to correct in homework assignments, if possible. We are wrapping up this unit and moving toward our new IB unit.
"How The World Works" is going to be the new focus. We will use rocks and soils to guide our inquiry.
In math, we are still working through 2 or 3 digit by 1 digit multiplication using the standard algorithm or the area model, which teaches the distributive property.
