We had reading buddies this week! They were so happy to see us!
Reading - Journeys - The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane
We have finished reading chapter 3 and 4 in this novel. We will continue to focus on vocabulary, content, and symbolism. At the end of the week, students will read two poems that are paired with the novel to look for similar themes and personification.
In addition to reading our novel, we have been learning about skills on adjectives, finding the theme, and story sequencing. We will continue to develop these skills in stations, next week.
Spelling
We will be learning about relative adverbs and pronouns, as well as, some reading content words in spelling. Our test will be Thursday, February 28.
Social Studies - Bountiful Midwest Farms
The crops of the Central and Great Plains will be our focus this week. Be sure to ask your child why certain crops grow better in one area than another and about why farmers use crop rotation.
Science - Energy Conversions
We will start Chapter 4 in our lesson. This chapter asks the students:
How does energy get to the devices all over Ergstown?
We will learn more about Blackouts and system failures.
