Reading: Close Reading
We will continue to practice close reading skills, as we head into Unit 1-Challenges-of our ELA Unit! The students will learn about text marking and reading deeper to help with understanding of complex texts. The students will read the book Teammates by Peter Goldenbock. We will talk about the challenges people faced during the 1960's and how one person in particular handled it. His name was Jackie Robinson.
Language skills: Synonyms and Antonyms

Science: Chapter 14-States of Matter
We started reading Lesson 1 in our States of Matter Chapter. Ask your child what they have lear ed so far.
We will be covering:
Lesson 1-What is the Structure of Matter?
We will identify some physical properties of matter, define matter, atoms and molecules and relate the three states of matter to the arrangement and movement of particles.
We have dug deeper and we are learning about the Periodic Table. Each student is completing a poster project in class about an element. Ask your child about it. What are their requirements and expectations?
Lesson 2-What Are Physical Properties and Changes?
We will be describing three states of matter, explain density and how it relates to volume and compare and contrast mixtures and solutions.
Lesson 3-What are Chemical Properties and Changes?
We will define chemical change, compare chemical changes, and explain how matter is conserved when a chemical change occurs.
