After being out of town last weekend I have been trying to catch up all week! The students did great with the sub last Friday, so that made things easy.
Here is an update on all of our subjects:
Reading: We are coming to the end of Holes. The test will be Friday, October 10. We will be watching the movie in class the following week. Our next unit is Folk Tales, which will involve some in class group work time to turn a folk tale into a play and then present it in class.
Science: Plants, Plants, Plants! We have been learning every part of them and the functions of each part. Students have been given a Leaf Book Assignment that is due October 8. We will be doing an experiment in class next week so we can observe roots growing on a bean plant. Our Chapter 2 test will be October 15th or 16th depending on how much we can get through next week.
Vocabulary: Each unit takes us 2 weeks. We are doing week 1 of Unit 3 this week and doing some activities out of the workbook. Next week we will do writing activities and then have the Unit 3 test on Friday, October 10.
Religion: We just have Chapter 5 to cover and then we will be taking the Unit 1 test on October 15th. We will be beginning the PUREly You program on October 20th.
Math: So far this year, we have done multiplication and division of whole numbers. This week, we talked about place value. There is a short quiz on what we discussed this week on Friday, October 3. Next week we will discuss rounding and comparing numbers. Decimals and fractions are coming up next.
