Parents,
Our field trip to Charlotte Motor Speedway to learn about force and motion is on Wednesday, 3/11. Don't forget to pack your child's lunch. We will pull out of here promptly at 8:00, so make sure your child is at school on time. Also we have parent conferences on Thursday. I look forward to meeting with you and your child.
Here's what we have going on in class this week:
- Reading- We started our argument and advocacy unit in reading. Students are learning to state the claim within the article. Today we read an article about whether or not chocolate milk should be allowed at lunch. Once students heard both sides, some of them had a hard time making their claim. It was a great discussion. Pleased continue to make sure your child is reading each night.
- Math- We have completed our fraction unit (but will continue to work with them) and will begin our geometry unit on Thursday.
- Science- On Monday we started our cells and human body unit. Students can learn more from the student hub.
- Word Study- No Word Study this week due to the field trip and short week. :)
