What Will We Be Learning This Week?
Math
We will conclude our study of measurement. Students will be tested the Metric Units of Measure for length, weight and volume. Students will also take a Benchmark Test on the computer. Results of these assessments will be used to review for End of Year Assessments.
Science
We will continue our unit on Animals and Animal Adaptations. We are enjoying a few live animals in our classroom! Thanks to Aidan M. and David S. for sending in hermit crabs and tadpoles! Students have been studying Physical and Behavioral Adaptations and Animal Habitats.
Language Arts
There will be no spelling this week due to the teacher work day on Friday.
