This Week We read the folktale, “Roadrunner’s Dance,”
this week in Literacy. With the story,
we extended our study of birds and adaptations with a “Who Am I” trifold
Picturing Writing project. We finished
up Unit 5 in Math and mostly did a great job on the assessment. We completed our Aurora poetry books as
well. We also continued to make progress
on our super hero publishing. We also
created a congratulations video for Tyler who spent the week in Colorado competing
in the USASA National Snowboarding Competition.
Tyler earned a Gold Medal in the GS race.
Next
Week We will read the
article, “Animals Come Back to Our National Parks,” in Literacy. Students will also begin another long-term
project at home, based on our National Parks.
We will begin Unit 6 in Math and start looking at how fractions relate
to decimals. We will continue working on
super hero publishing and hopefully begin to think about ideas for our NH Cups
video. We will complete our “What Bird
Am I” projects
