Hello 4B Families,
Below are the happenings for the week of 3/30:
Religion: We will complete Chapter 19 and review. Our test on Chapters 18 & 19 will be when we get back from our Easter break. We will also discuss the events of Holy Week.
ELA: We will read the biography The Beatles Were Fab (& They Were Funny). We will discuss fact vs. opinion, text structure, and figurative language as related to the story. Our spelling pattern is adding -ed and -ing endings to words. Some words do not change. Some words double the final consonant. Some words drop a final e, and some words change the final y to i. Our grammar skill is identifying modal auxilaries: helping verbs (might, may, can, could, would, should, must).
Math: We will review Unit 9, Adding and Subtracting fractions and have a test on Tuesday, 3/31.
Science: We will continue with Topic 3, Lesson 4 and discuss how tech devices work to send messages, parts of a wave system, and the difference between analog & digital signals.
Social Studies: We will continue with Chapter 6, and discuss the events that led to the French & Indian War, the events that ocurred during the war, and outcomes of the war. We will put on a short play in our classroom, "The French & Indian War - Hamilton style".
