Here's what to expect this week in 5th grade-

  • Ch. 9 Vocabulary Cards
  • Ch. 9 Study Guide pg. 401
  • Ch. 9 Review Test pages 402-404
  • Online Textbook

Writing- We will be busy this week drafting, editing, revising, and publishing our literary essays. We will celebrate our hard work on Thursday! 

Math- We are looking at solving word problems by determining reasonable answers, estimating mixed numbers, adding/subtracting mixed numbers, and subtracting mixed numbers with renaming.  We will review Friday and Monday, and our test over chapter 8 and 9 will be Tuesday.

Reading- We are continuing our unit on fantasy. This week will focus on using information to better understand our stories, use vocabulary strategies to figure out unfamiliar words, study how complex fantasy characters truly can be, and investigate symbolism. 

Social Studies- We are completing our stations on the 13 colonies and will soon be given a region (New England, Middle, or Southern) to focus on and create a presentation using technology!
