Curriculum this Week:
Math- In math this week, we will be finishing up Area and Perimeter. We realized after the quiz on Friday that we needed a couple of extra days to review. We will be starting basic fractions on Thursday.
Writing- In writing this week, we will continue our Informational Books. Many students are starting to become a little stressed while working on their books. I think they now feel rushed because of the snow days. I have told them that they are fine and we will get it finished. :) Our plan is to publish their informational books into an ebook. More to come soon!
Science- In science this week, we will begin learning about energy. We will be focused on the standard: "Recognize that energy takes various forms that may be grouped based on their interaction with matter."
World Read Aloud Day- March 3rd
After the read aloud, we were able to ask questions about the coast and their class asked us questions about the mountains. It was a great success!
Science- Phases of the Moon
The students loved it!
