Reader’s Workshop
We will continue our unit called “Making Reading a 10 out of 10”. We are reviewing and establishing systems to support reading and learning some basic strategies for thinking while reading fiction books.
Writer’s Workshop
Be sure to check in with your child about their small moment story. For an extra challenge ask your child to open up the rubric and together you can check and see if the writing met all the requirements. We will move on from small moments to Opinion writing next week and start by giving awards to items in a collection.
Math
5th graders will continue our unit on the addition and subtraction of fractions with unlike denominators by finding common denominators. They’ll also receive feedback on their quiz.
6th graders will continue reviewing decimals, get feedback on their decimals quiz, and move on to studying fraction operations.
History
5th graders will begin to study The Age of Exploration next week. Instead of a quiz this week, the students finished up a project on a well-known Native American.
6th graders continue our study of early humans in particular, hunter gatherer societies and the students will work on their early human timelines. We will review for a short quiz on hunter gatherers on Friday. (We didn’t get to the quiz this week).
Science
5th graders will work with Ms. Parrino in science lab.
6th graders will work with Mr. Nelson in science lab.
PE
The district is providing 3 PE lessons per week.  In our distance learning schedule, the students have the following times away from their screens to complete these PE lessons:
Mon 10:00-10:30
Tue 10:00-10:30
Thu 10:00-10:30
*Please note that our recess follows these times directly so the students actually have 45 minutes to be active, work up a sweat, and be away from their screens.
