Week of February 14

Students did an excellent job taking their first closed book tests this past week. It was obvious much time was spent preparing for these tests at home - keep up the good work!

There will not be reading classes this Monday due to the Matter Matters presentations. Valentine's parties begin at 1:30 on Monday.

Here is the upcoming week in a nutshell:

MATH
This week, we will discuss geometry further as we cover congruent and similar shapes, symmetry, and flips, sides and turns (lessons 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 in chapter 15). There will be a checkpoint assessment on these topics on Thursday, 2/17.

READING
We will continue to practice the strategies we have learned throughout the year. Students did an excellent job on their African American photo albums!

ENGLISH
We will be working on a friendly letter writing unit this week.

SOCIAL STUDIES
Students will begin our study of Egypt this week.

SCIENCE
This week, we will begin our study of ecosystems.

We have a very fun week ahead of us!
