NOVEMBER 30-DECEMBER 4th

Class Update-
Our class began our Poetry Unit by learning about the form of Haiku. In the coming weeks we will learn over 10 forms including: couplets, free verse, cinquains, acrostics, diamantes and much more.

In Reading our RTI groups began reading stories from the unit of study on the Revolution. The reading skill focus is cause and effect.

In the coming three weeks we will be learning about the winter holidays of Hannukah, Kwanzaa, Saturnalia, Christmas. We will have a Holiday Quiz just before the break.

We will have our class Spelling Bee this Friday!

In Science we will continue the Periodic Table Unit and begin work on our Science Projects discussing Investigative Questions and the Scientific Method.
