What we're learning in the final days of school!
Reading
We will continue our Journey's curriculum to keep as much routine as possible. However, we will not be giving quizzes next week.
Holes:
We have been doing Holes as a read aloud in class. On Monday, June 5th we will watch the movie with 4th grade and do cumulative activities that go with the story.
Math
Pre-Algebra
We are working on some pre-algebra skills in game format (who knew we were actually LEARNING!). Examples of problems include 5 + ___ = 13, where students have to find out the blank. We've been practicing this skill with all four operations.Negative Values
We have been learning and practicing when and where we see and use negative values in real life. It has been very basic so far with vocabulary and real-world applications.
Fluency
We have continued our multiplication and division fluency!! This is a HUGE skill that is applicable to all grade levels.
