Last Week
We worked on labeling/coloring maps using a grid system. We also learned about five different Michigan National Forests and discussed why it might be important to know about them when thinking about our central question for our unit: How can we, as Michigan citizens, persuade others to care for the environment when buying goods made from lumber?
This Week
We will finish up our economics unit and spend time working on our Third Grade Memory Books!

Math
Last Week
The students all completed the End-of-Year Assessment. It was divided up into three parts. The remainder of the week was spent on Math Bafflers solving and writing their own. It was an exciting week.
This Week
The students will test out the student created Math Bafflers. They are very excited about this! That will conclude math for this school year!

Mrs. Harris- Reading
Last Week: We continued to work on personification. The students enjoyed the introduction and dove deeper into this as the week progressed. This Week: We will present our personification projects. We will then work on problem and solution in a story! |
Ms. Smith - Reading
Last Week: We finished up cause and effect and began our work on personification, which is figurative language in which human traits are given to non-living objects, This Week: We will finish up our work on personification and finish the year learning about how to identify the problem and solution in a story. |
Ms. Burnstein - Reading
Last Week: We finished our work on cause and effect in fictional text. Students also began comparing and contrasting fractured fairy tales to their original counterparts. They practiced summarizing these traditional tales and explored versions of popular fairy tales from around the world. This Week: We will wrap up our study of fairy tales with readers' theater. Groups will practice their fluency skills by working together to read and re-read a script of a fractured fairy tale before presenting to the entire class. |
