Thank you for all of your help in the Recipe for Homework assignment! I loved looking through the photos of the students preparing a meal/snack/etc. The ability to provide sustenance for oneself is a true life skill, and one that can be enjoyable!

This week ELA: Completed media literacy mini unit.
We finished exploring how advertisers gear commercials/ads to their target audiences, how they phrase words, manipulate images, and utilize celebrities to convince consumers to buy their products. This culminated in watching a couple famous Super Bowl ads on Friday to get us ready for Sunday's big game!
Next week ELA: Persuasive writing.

This week Math: Adding fractions.
In addition to diving further into the fraction unit, 5th graders encountered a word problem or two on Friday that had them effectively doing algebra! They received a crash course on coefficients, comparing like to like terms, and calculating collections of items at the very end versus as they go along. Well done, y'all!
Next week Math: Continue adding fractions.

Some added community time: a joint science lesson with 4th grade regarding how to determine which season was being depicted in a photograph. They learned how the details in the image plus the time stamp can help figure out what time of year it was in the photo. Plus, a guest appearance by Ryan's son, Leo!
