Hello!
Hope everyone had a good long weekend.
In math we reviewed fraction and decimals, and took a final test on it. Gabe me a good picture of where we are at, especially with report cards coming up.
In language arts we learned about onomatopoeia, and how to add descripive sounds to our poems. We also finished off book 2 of our novel study, and discussed it with our book groups on Friday.
In social studies we finished off our family heritage country booklets. Most did really well with the projects, though some had a little too much copy and paste.
In science we reviewed and took our rock cycle quiz. Most seemed to do well with it.
In French we worked on our All About Me french project. Students have been gathering information these last couple of weeks about our preferences, and finally created their Tout Sur Moi.
Next week we review all of our math concepts this year and take a final test, so it’ll be the last chance to show me what they know. We will type up some of our poems and work on making our poetry booklet. We will start (and possibly finish) book 3 of our novel. We will peer assess our country projects, and look at our next country comparison activity. In science we will start our slideshow research about a specific type of rock. Tuesday is also the Spring Concert. There is an afternoon show at 1 and an evening show at 6.
Going to be a busy week. See you on Monday.
