CLASS UPDATE

Welcome back from Thanksgiving Break! We have lots happening in the these last 3 weeks prior to the Winter Break.

In ELA we are focusing on the Animal Allies Unit, which focuses on Jane Goodall. We are focusing on annotation during reading. Our book projects are due Wednesday, December 5th. Each student also selected their new AR Goal for the 2nd Trimester. I highly recommend reading a lot over the break.

In History this week we will be learning about Politics and forms of Government. Next week we kickoff the exciting Egypt Unit. In addition, we are playing Asia Bingo learning all of the countries, as well. Our test will be next Friday, December 7th.
