Math, Science, and Social Studies
Science- We will complete our "Name That Shell" unit. We will have a bivalve and gastropod quiz and learn how to use a dichotomous key to further classify shells. We will end the week with a shell research project.
Reading, Writing, Vocab and Word Study
Grammar--We worked last week on simple sentences. This week we will use conjunctions to combine simple sentences into compound sentences. We will focus on the FANBOYS conjunctions (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so).
Reading--We will wrap up our book clubs this week. We will be assessing comprehension based on character traits, summarizing, and responding to reading by answering self-selected questions.
Writing--We will be continuing research about our time periods. We will also continue looking at non-fiction text structures and will be writing examples of those structures using the research we've completed.
