What to expect this week in 5th grade:
Math- We are working on volume, solid figure nets, and graphing ordered pairs this week. Assignment #8 is due Friday.
Social Studies- We are working on some review activities on chapter 7 (causes of the American Revolution). We will resume our video project on Thursday and Friday. If your student wants to bring in props for their video, they may bring them in by Thursday.
Reading- We are finishing up story elements and then reviewing comparing/contrasting, cause/effect, problem/solution, inferences/drawing conclusions. Literature circles are now on Tuesdays and Fridays. Your student should have their reading done as well as 3 questions and 2 comments posted on www.edmodo.com by each Tue. and Fri. Failure to have this done will result in a strike and staying in for recess to complete it.
Writing- We will begin drafting our expository pieces. Some students may realize that they need more information for their pieces. Ask your student if they need to do any extra research at home on their nonfiction topic. Our DLR quiz will be on Friday. Students should study their DLR sheet to prepare for this quiz.
PRISM has been rescheduled for this Thursday!
Science Center Field Trip is this Wed! It's not too late to be a chaperone- please email me! We will be leaving school at 9 in the morning.
