A GLANCE At our week:
Writing - We are working on writing three paragraphs to support our thesis statement, and using research to help our opinions.
Reading - We are continuing to look at more than one form of research to gather information about a topic and subtopics. We are also learning how to take notes about our topics and subtopics.
Guided Reading Groups - We are focusing on the difference between theme and main idea. We are identifying the theme of the texts we are reading together, and then finding details from the text to support the theme we identified.
Math - We are using different strategies when multiplying and dividing by 6, 7, 8, and 9. We are also working on paying attention to what the directions are asking us. We can not just write an answer when the directions say to write a multiplication sentence, or to use a strategy to solve. This is very important - paying attention to the directions!!!
Science - We are taking our test on Ecosystems tomorrow. We will begin Ch. 6, The Water Cycle and Clouds, on Wednesday.
