Language Arts- 
This week's poems focused on the essential question, How do people figure things out? This week we read many poems that had to do with this essential question.  We focused on the following...
-Strategy: Alliteration and rhyme
-Skill:Author's Point of View compared to our point of view
-Building vocabulary

This coming week is a review week so there will not be a unit out of Wonders. We will be reading a story in Epic books and doing a couple writing assignments based on the story. We will also be reading a play this week and reviewing Theme. We will have a short quiz over this play on Friday. 

Math- 
This week took a test over Topic 6, Area. Tests went home on Friday. We also began Topic 7 which is over representing and Interpreting Data with the use of Pictographs and Bar Graphs. This is a short topic and we will be testing over it on Friday. 

Classroom News

Just a reminder...With the increase of absences this time of year, I will be having more assignments listed in their Google Classroom. That way, if your child is out and begins to feel better during the day, they can begin to work on their missing assignments at home just by logging into their Google Classroom accounts. This is something we have been practicing since the beginning of school so they should all know how to navigate the site.
