Reading- This week we set reading goals and selected our hero nonfiction texts. Please look in the Friday folder for the handout describing the hero project and activities. Ask your child what hero candidate they are reading about.
Writing- Next week, we are starting our nonfiction writing unit. We'll be sharing a variety of immersion texts as examples of good writing!
Math- Look for the Unit 5 Test coming home in your child's Friday folder. Next week, we will begin unit 6 on long division strategies and angle measurement. Ask your child about the four properties of multiplication they learned about.
Science- Students began researching a pollinator and began their layout for a nonfiction book describing the life cycle of a plant and their pollinator. Next week we will be seeing the next phase of the cycle as we harvest the seeds from the pods. Ask your child what pollinator they're learning about.
Social studies- This week, we discussed the climate and natural resources of the southwest region. We watched a video explaining how life was like living in the Dust Bowl. Next week, we will be discussing how natural resources can help a region's economy. Ask your child what is a natural resource of the Southwest.
