● Plants get the material needed for growth primarily from air and water.
● Food webs consist of plants, animals that eat plants, animals that eat other animals, and decomposers.
● Matter moves between the air and soil and among plants, animals, and decomposers that release waste matter back into the environment.
● Organisms survive and thrive in environments that meet their needs.

Unit 3 - Poetry
Unit 3 - Poetry
This unit teaches students tools and strategies for approaching poetry to both read and interpret poems. It gives them continual opportunities to create poems themselves, allowing them to practice what they have learned. We will be ending our unit with a poetry SLAM where students get the opportunity to share some of their poems in a fun and cozy atmosphere.
Spelling
Our ELA classrooms will not have a new spelling pattern to practice this week. We will resume spelling activities after Thanksgiving break. We will use this extra time to work on developing poems.
