Hola a todos!
I just wanted to say thank you for a spectacular first quarter. Let me just say the students have been able to thrive during these past 9 weeks. They have learned routines, behavior expectations and their academic development as been nothing short of amazing.
Just for all of you to see how much they have learned this year, here is a list of all the contents they have seen:
Personal Narratives
Informational Texts (Mayas, Aztecs and Incas)
Multiplication and Division
Volume of 3D shapes
Order of Operations and mathematical expressions
Fractions as Quotients
Fraction multiplication
Matter and its interactions
Heat
The water cycle
Weather and Climate
Rapanui Culture
As you can see, they have been applying themselves to their work in different topics.
I would like to mention also the different ways they have been able to better themselves in other aspects:
Classroom behavior has improved
Taking turns
Seating arrangement (they can finally say they are working in groups)
Recess behavior
Preparedness
Class participation
Study habits
Note taking
From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!
All of you have made it such a special year already.
❤️🖤🤍

(Click here to access the folder with our weekly work).
Your child will always have homework unless other information is shared.
This homework consists of 2 pages (front and back) with questions for Math, Science and ELA.
Pages are due as follows:
Page 1 due on Monday
Page 2 due on Tuesday
Page 3 due on Wednesday
Page 4 due on Thursday
This homework will be checked and discussed, and students are allowed to ask questions to the teacher if they come across a question they might find difficult.
Please have your child do the best they can on the HW as this is usually a review of things they know and/or the newer content we will cover that week. They should be able to complete the work independently or with minimal guidance. Students are also encouraged to bring their notebooks home if they need to.

This week we will start with Unit 3, which is all about poetry.
As they read poetry and learn about its structure, the students will also become authors and write poetry according to different topics and themes.
Matemáticas
As we dive deeper into Multiplication of fractions, we will also start with division of fractions as we begin to prepare for our Unit test.
Science
We continue with the unit on weather and now we will study the different elements and phenomena that factor in weather.
Social Studies
During this class, we will continue practicing our dance for the Cultural Event while the students also learn about the Rapanui culture.
