Assalamu alikum,
We survived science fair week! Alhamdelillah!
This week are getting used to our new schedule after the time change. Here's what we are doing this week:
English-Language Arts
We are revising and editing our YAC stories.
We are beginning a class novel called Stone Fox. This is a class-wide novel that goes with our Iditarod. This book is a great book because the main character has to utilize all the 7 habits.
As a class read aloud we are reading Sled Dog School. The main character is running a sled dog school as a part of his math class. It's a great blend of sled dog racing, math, business, and life in the upper peninsula of Michigan.
Math
Tigers and Lions are exploring equivalent fractions through tape diagrams. This will be the foundation for equivalent fractions through computation. Pistons will be using place value charts to divide 3 and 4 digit numbers.
Science
We are continuing to learn about external and internal body systems in humans and animals. This week we are focusing on eyes and sight.
Social Studies
Students are wrapping up the northeast region and will begin the southeast region. They will have a test on Friday on the northeast. Part of the test is to know the names and locations of the states in the region. While we will practice in class, it would be a good idea for students to review the northeast map daily.
Jazak Allah Khayr,
Sister Patti Picard
