Hi Everyone,
Our first week back has been a busy one. In math we are finishing up multiplication of decimals. We will have the Topic 6 Test on Tuesday. If you are interested in having your child do additional practice to prepare for the test, check out the Topic 6 re-teach section found in their enVision math books. This reteach section can also be accessed online. In ELA we have completed informational power writes on free choice science topics. The children have chosen to write on a diverse range of subjects from animal behavior to severe weather systems. Using the Alpha Box Strategy for collecting key words in a piece of non-fiction has helped to make student writing more exact and informative. We are currently learning how to write good answers to open-response test questions. In science we are learning how to research a topic and write an informational essay based on our research. I hope everyone has a terrific weekend!
