Week 7!

This week may have been shorter, but we still managed to get quite a bit done.  Check out some of our highlights below:

*Math:

• Students chose between two projects 
• Project 1: creating and building a board game that contains unit 1 concepts 
• Project 2: taking a survey to figure out careers they would be good at/creating a budget based on their annual salary
• Unit 2 (adding and subtracting decimals) will begin on Monday!
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

*Literacy:

• Had two book club meetings
• Worked on listening to other perspectives about what is happening in our books and using that information to deepen our thinking
• Looked at character problems and possible life lessons or themes we could learn from those problems
• Created story arcs for our personal narrative and used each moment to write long and strong
• Uploaded current narrative drafts to SeeSaw

*Social Studies:

• Filled out a project planning guide in small groups
• Focused on how presentations will engage the audience, what resources groups will be using, how they will teach their information and what their main teaching point is
• Began working on scripts/projects

*Fall Art Activity:

• We created short stories about fall using crayon resist and water colors
