Week of April 23rd

Math 

Still working on fractions. Please be sure to use Zearn or Khan Academy if they are struggling. This is good for extra practice. Quiz will be on Wednesday for lessons 11-17.

ELA

We are working on "Tales of A Trickster".  The students have a link they can use with the vocabulary on Quizlet, but they should already have the words in their notebooks. We worked on this last week. They are learning the characteristics of a trickster in this story. The test for "Tales of a Trickster" will be on Thursday.
In this particular story, we are working on summarizing and comparing/contrasting. We are also reviewing previous skills such as cause/effect, fact/option, and 1st person/3rd person point of view.

Social Studies

We started Antebellum today, but will test on Government on this Wednesday. They have their notes and box-it to use to study along with their graded quiz that was sent home Friday. This gives you an idea of what they still need to study. Hopefully, we will be able to test Antebellum next Wednesday. It's a short unit.

Science

We finished the unit with our Edible Soil activity last week. Hopefully that helped. Pictures from it are on a previous post. Our unit on soil bring us into Fast and Slow Land Changes. We will be focusing on weathering, erosion, and deposition in this particular unit.
