Week of 5/27

Post date: May 27, 2014 7:16:22 PM

Everyone wants to know at this time of year if we are still learning. My answer is, "Yes we are." Although things are winding down and there are a lot of things on our calendar, we are trying to have a normal schedule as much as possible.

We have finished all of our math units, so we have started my favorite unit - Games and Puzzles. We will be learning about various games and puzzles from around the world. The kids always LOVE this unit!

We are spending some time with non-fiction materials again. We are also looking for the most important details and message from stories. Especially the message that the author doesn't come right out and tell us. Finally in writing we are working on creative writing and writing fiction. We don't get a chance to do that very often, so this is the perfect time of year for that kind of exploration.

Have a great week!
