Dear 5A Families,
In math we are finishing up Unit 5 and will be taking the test on Friday, 1/27. Study guides went home yesterday, and a signature is due back this coming Thursday. The kids will play Jeopardy and have a day of differentiation as ways to review next week. In Science, the chapter 6 test will be next Tuesday. We’ve done a lot of review of the lessons in class as well as completed a study guide. On Monday we’ll play a few review games. In social studies we wrapped up our study of early civilizations in North America by completing an Inuit poster. Students wrote 3 paragraphs from the perspective of an Inuit focusing on their migration routes, natural resources, and tools/clothing adaptations. In writing we finished the MA Attraction 5 paragraph essay, and I have to say I was very impressed with the level of effort everyone put in. There are strategies we continue to work on to strengthen written work. Our next piece of writing will be a narrative using 2 non-fiction sources. In reading, the kids have been enjoying their new novel The Diving Bell as well as leading their Curiosity Clubs!
