MATH
In math this week we worked hard on multiplying fractions. We achieved a lot and the students did a great job staying busy and focused on all the Go Math worksheets, which will be due on Monday. Page 431 problems 1-10, pg. 432 1-6, pg. 425 1-8, pg. 426 1-6, pg. 437 1-11, pg. 438 1-6, pg. 443 1-8, pg. 444 1-6, pg. 449 1-8 and pg. 450 problems 1-6. Have a great weekend.
SCIENCE
We are still learning about ecosystems, and will continue to do so this next week. Ask your child about the difference between food chains and food webs, and about terms like: omnivores, carnivores, herbivores, producers, and consumers. We also started planting seeds in our new Tower Garden! A huge thank you to our Rayder Enrichment Foundation for purchasing this for us!
Social Studies
English Language Arts
Next week we will begin on demand writing. This will give the students an opportunity to become familiar with being given a prompt then writing. This is not only a testing skill, but a lifelong skill. We will be conferencing all through this process so that they get feedback right away that they can apply in the near future.
In our novel study, Out of My Mind, Melody's is now in an inclusion classroom. Melody is very excited to be learning more, despite the kids who ignore or call her names due to her being different.
