MATH
In Unit 3, the students have been exploring using number lines, drawings, and fraction circles to identify and make equivalent fractions. They are also working on ordering and comparing fractions.
LITERACY
We have begun our Persuasive Unit. We have been exploring Types of Persuasive Writing, why authors write to persuade, and we will be writing their own Persuasive Essays.
SCIENCE/SOCIAL STUDIES
In Science, students are learning about water pollution and water filtration. We will be starting a water filtration project soon where students will work together to design and build a water filter. In Social Studies, students are learning about slavery and civil rights.
