Once again, we've packed a ton of learning and excitement in one week! Here are a few highlights from our week.
- We practiced our Mystery Skype with Mrs. Wentworth on Wednesday, then had the real one on Thursday afternoon! Each student had a specific job to help the Skype work seamlessly.
- We've completed unit 1 in math and took the assessment on Friday. Unit 2, Place Value, Multiplication and Division starts Tuesday!
- Students worked to revise their first writing of a small moment. The students worked with their writing partner to help add more detail and then edit for spelling and grammar.
- The class has talked about finding a book that interests you and working hard to stick with the book. In finding a high interest book at your just right level will help become a better, stronger reader.
- The students did an amazing job working on plot versus theme
- Our Three Worlds Meet unit has gotten off to a fantastic start. Along with 5H, all students have learned what each world was like pre-exploration. Together in partners, pairs worked on a venn diagram to compare and contrast the three worlds. We then talked about identity and how each world identified themselves.

ENJOY your Columbus Day on Monday!
Until Tuesday....
