Math: Students will have a fraction operations word problem quiz on Friday, 11/19/16. Students can review for this quiz on Khan Academy. I would recommend completing the following topics:
- Add and subtract fraction word problems
- Multiplying fractions word problems
- Dividing fractions word problems
- Divide fractions and whole numbers word problems
ELA: Students continue to work on identifying compound and complex sentences. They are also working on identifying fragments and run-ons. Students will begin a personal narrative unit this week. In learning center, students are learning writing strategies that will help them with their personal narrative. These strategies include using strong verbs, precise nouns, dialogue, transitional words, and comparisons in their writing. In addition, students will work on learning ways to include attention grabbers at the beginning of a sentence. This will get the readers interested in the students' narratives.
SS: Students are beginning a new unit on Early Humans. They will begin the unit by learning the key vocabulary words.
Science: Students will finish reviewing the car experiment. Then, they will learn about volume.
