Here is a quick overview of our upcoming week...
Reading: We are going to start a new whole class book club on The Tiger Rising. Students will read individually and in their groups. They will also answer discussion questions in their groups as well.
4th and 5th grade Writing: We will learn and review language standards. I will also review report cards with each student and set individual goals with them in Writing.
Projects: We will introduce our new 4 week project on Molecules and Organisms. We will learn the vocabulary for this project. Students will make a study guide for a vocab quiz they will have the following week. For this project, we will be building terrariums out of 2 liter soda bottles. Students will be required to bring in one 2 liter soda bottle by the end of the week. We will construct these terrariums the following week. After we review what will be required and learn the new vocabulary for this project, we will then learn some background knowledge on ecosystems and photosynthesis.
I hope everyone enjoys the rest of their break and I am looking forward to seeing everyone back on Monday January 4th!
