I am so sorry this update is a little late- we have been BUSY, BUSY! :)

What to expect this week in 5th grade:

Math- We are working on ratios, proportions, comparing fractions, decimals, %s, and probability. Assignment #7 is due Friday.

Concord's learning strategy for this week pertains to math! Check it out:







Science- We are continuing our study of space, specifically the inner and outer planets! Ask your student if they can name the planets in order. Can they give you characteristics of each planet?

Reading- We are focusing on a multitude of reading strategies and skills including main idea, compare/contrast, cause/effect, and problem/solution. We are busy working in guided reading groups, independent activities, and literature circles. Their Edmodo questions/comments for their lit. circles are due Thursday. Please engage your student in a conversation about their books!

Writing- We are busy revising, editing, and publishing our 2nd memoir! We will celebrate our memoirs on Friday!
