Spotlight On Learning
Hello from Room 3! We continue to work hard every day and are looking forward to the upcoming vacation! In ELA, we have begun a new research writing unit where students will conduct research on a topic of their choosing. They will have to defend their positions and provide credible sources to support their position.
In Math, we have begun multiplying and dividing positive and negative integers. We will continue next with the order of operations. I keep telling the kids that it's fun, like solving a riddle, but not sure if they believe me!
We just finished learning about the scale of objects in the universe. The students were amazed at just how small our planet really is compared to other planets and stars. They did a great job researching a planet of their choosing and designing a "scaled" amusement park on the planet. We will next learn about the distance and gravity within our solar system. We will learn about the tilt of the Earth, how it rotates around the sun, and how the sunlight affects different parts of the Earth.
