This week: We continued working through word problems using multi digit multiplication. We are all still learning this concept, so students would benefit from extra practice at home!
Next Week: We will continue multiplication and move into division strategies!
Here is a video on area model and the parent letter for his unit.
Science
Science
This Week : We explored mixtures, what they are made of, and how mass of individual objects is conserved when they are created.
Next Week : We will explore solutions, what they are made of, and how mass of individual objects is conserved when they are created. We will differentiate solutions from mixtures, as solutions make a new material and have an even distribution of substances throughout them.
Social Studies
Social Studies
This Week : We began our week five newspaper about the first people to live in the Americas. The native tribes of Texas and their traits. These include Apache, Comanche, Wichita, Caddo, Jumano, Karankawa, and Tonkawa. We talked about their culture, their way of life, and their immense respect for the land they lived on.
Next Week : We will begin our week six newspaper on Native American culture and government by region in Texas. These include the gulf region, plains region, puebloan region, and the southeatern region. We will learn about how they conducted trade and their tribal economy as well to complete a venn diagram showing similarities and difference between the tribes/regions.
