Writing: We will be focusing on writing complete sentences. We will determine the difference between a complete sentence and an incomplete sentence.
Math: We will continue to study graphing: how to pose a question, how to collect data, and how to construct a graph. We will also be trying to increase our addition and subtraction fluency skills.
Science: We will be reviewing the scientific method by going through the steps of a science experiment.
Social Studies: We will finish our Helping Hands PBL by reflecting on the entire process and making suggestions to make the PBL better in the future.
