A Few Notes...
Our Classes... RELIGION: God the Father's Gracious Gifts This unit looks at how God crated the universe and everything in it and how He gives us the responsibility of caring for it. We also see how God continues to take care of the universe and each of us personally. There is no memory work test this week. MATH: Reteaching Division Chapter 8 was a tough one for many students, and we're going to do a quick review to work on understanding some of the key concepts and skills. The chapter focuses on remainders when dividing to make equal groups or when sharing equally. Lessons this week include...
SPELLING: No spelling list this week READING: Compare/Contrast We are focusing on comparing and contrasting. Much of our reading will be centered around realistic fiction. WRITING: Editing and Sequence We are paying attention to sequence as we write realistic fiction. We also are sharpening our editing skills. SOCIAL STUDIES: Communities Build a Nation Chapter 3 asks the question, "How does our past affect our present?" In this chapter, students learn about the original inhabitants of North America and how and why other people came to America. They also learn about how American exploration and settlement caused changes in the lives of people at the time and how it affects our lives today. SCIENCE: Where Living Things Are Found In this chapter, the big idea is, "All the living and nonliving things in an environment interact in an ecosystem." We will be looking at different types of ecosystems, how they work, and how they change. Our chapter 4 test will be on Thursday.
