What to expect this week in 5th grade:
Math- We are finishing up our unit on measurement! We will be reviewing Wed. and Thurs. and our test will be on Friday. Students can study using the online textbook, their textbook at home, and homework sheets in binder! Students should be able to complete measurement conversions, add and subtract measurements, find the elapsed time, and find the perimeter and area of polygons.
Science- WOW! I am SO proud of everyone's PRISM projects! PRISM night is this Thursday. Be sure to come and check out everyone's hard work! We will be working on our space unit in class- specifically, the phases of the moon.
Reading- We will be focused on using close reading strategies and using context clues and word parts to understand vocabulary. As a reminder, students should be reading at least 20 minutes every night! I find this picture to be very powerful in showing us why it is so important to be reading each and every night! Literature circle questions/comments on edmodo are due Thursday.
Writing- We will be flash drafting our 2nd memoir and revising this week! Ask your student what they are writing about in this memoir AND how are they structuring it?
Reminders:
Thursday- PRISM night
Friday- Spring Pictures
Friday- Six Flags reading sheets due (optional)
2/28- Middle School forms due
2/28- Science Center Field Trip
