WHAT WE ARE LEARNING

LA: MRS. PHELPS

This week we will review for our figurative language quiz on Wednesday. We will continue to explore poetry and the poetic devices that poets use to help create emotion, mood, and imagery within their writing.  We are really focusing on diving deep into a poem to discover what the author wants us to feel, what story they are trying to tell, and how they use figurative language to do so. 

If we have time, we are also going to be reviewing some capitalization rules (specifically in titles). This will be helpful or the upcoming Language Usage MAP test. 

Homework: Figurative Language Quiz on Wednesday (Use poetry journal from class and Kahoot on google classroom to study)

MATH: MRS. BENNETT

This week in Math class students will work on adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators. Students will use the GCF to rewrite their fractions with a common denominator. Students will then determine if the need to change their answer from an improper fraction to a mixed number. Students will also solve word problems where they have to determine which operation to use for the scenario. They will also begin to look at how decimals and fractions are related.

*I will not be at school this week because I am chaperoning the 8th grade trip to the Grand Canyon. I will try to check my email at least once a day, but may not always have service or time. If there is something you need answered promptly, please contact Mrs. Crush or Mrs. Phelps and they can call/text me. The sub has everything to run math class as usual! Please utilize Google Classroom in my absence.*
