Writing
With us only having four days of school, the week kept a rapid pace. Our students had fun using their creativity as we dove into the elements of fairy tale using technology, texts and organizers. Having exposure to a variety of texts provided a great foundation for our writers as they began to tackle this literacy challenge!
Shared Reading
Science
Math
Old friends have been working hard to analyze different types of graphs. This week we have used plot lines, bar graphs, stem-and-leaf graphs and circle graphs. The second half of chapter 6 focuses on adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators.
This week new friends used ordered number pairs to locate points and regions on a map. It is important that students have their multiplication facts secure, as we progress with long division. Study guides will come home Monday and Tuesday. New friends will be tested on chapter 6 on Wednesday, January 27th.
