Lucky Week 13!

Hello everyone!

Wow, December is here and these students are changing and growing each and every day.  I cannot begin to tell you the amount of work and motivation I'm seeing from every single student!  Here are some of the things we did this week...

Math:
  • Worked hard on learning divisibility rules
  • Demonstrated these rules in SeeSaw
  • Began whole number division
  • Divided to decorate some UGLY sweaters!
Literacy:
  • Read A LOT of non-fiction texts in 5D
  • Talked about how to keep EYES and MINDS in the book
  • Took notes using a format called "Topic, Sub Topic, Details"
  • Started learning about Informational Text Structures
  • Sorted text structures for better understanding
Read Aloud
  • We are finished with Scar Island

Science
  • We began our MATTER unit with 5L early this week
  • Chemical/Physical change in 5D
  • Students will be traveling to the other four classrooms for two days each to learn about matter

  • This unit will culminate with a project
