Hi Students & Parents,
I hope this message finds you all well and that you enjoyed the three day weekend. Students will participate in My Very Own Library again this week and will come home with brand new books to read! This Friday, Ray will be hosting an international movie night. Please see the picture below for more information:
4th Grade: We are reading the graphic novel March detailing important events from the Civil Rights Movement from the perspective of Congressman John Lewis. Students are defining words from the text and answering questions that require them to use textual and visual clues from the book to support their thinking. In math, students are working on long division. This week we will look at using the area model to solve division problems. A note sheet for student (and parent) reference will be attached.
5th Grade: Students are also reading March and doing the same activity as fourth graders with higher level vocabulary words and more challenging questions. In writing, we are researching a figure from the Harlem Renaissance to write an informational piece on. In math students had the opportunity to redo their quiz on dividing whole numbers and fractions today after reviewing all together. Most students showed improvement. We will move on decimal place value for the remainder of the week. Students will need to read and write numbers in standard, written, and expanded form. 6th Grade: SK is using a new sight word book where he unscrambles a sentence, glues it down, then writes the sentence and draws a corresponding sentence. We are continuing to work on identifying 3-D shapes in the classroom.
♥Mrs. Ely & Ms. Montney
