A Sneak Peek At Our Week ...

Writing:  We are continuing our "Reading Response" unit this week and students will focus on choosing strong, supportive text evidence to support their thinking.  They will also practice explaining how their evidence supports a prompt. 

Reading: Our classroom will be finishing our Main Idea & Details unit this week, and will take an end of the unit assessment on Wednesday.  Following this unit, we will be starting a Summarizing unit.  Lessons will start Thursday this week!

Math:  This week students will take the Unit 4 pre-test, complete lesson 3.11, participate in a Review Game Thursday, and take the Unit 3 test on Friday.

Science:  On Tuesday and Wednesday this week, students will begin completing a "Fact Finder" sheet, researching information about a biome they are interested in.  (This will help them for the Quarter 2 Project!)  Towards the end of the week, lessons and activities will focus on food chains.
