Learn about what we are doing in class. . .
Math
In Math Unit 5 we are revisiting fractions but taking it a step further. This week we focused on adding fractions with like denominators and finding fractions of a whole.
Reading & Writing
In literacy this week we continued our new Tall Tales Unit. We explored new Tall Tale characters and looked for similarities and difference between them. We also brainstormed impossible events in preparation for writing our own Tall Tales next week!
Science & Social Studies
In Social Studies this week, we continued learning about immigration. The kids participated in a Web Quest of Ellis Island making 10 stops along their journey.
