Update for Week of 3/30/15

I hope you all had a great weekend! We have a busy week ahead!

In reading, we are focusing on scientific texts based on simple machines & robots. The students will be using these texts to determine the main idea and identify evidence the author is using.

In writing, the students are wrapping up their informational research assignments. Each student will be presenting their work!

In social studies, we will be reviewing and taking the assessment later in the week. Each student has a study guide that they completed in class.

In math, we will be finishing our unit and taking our test Thursday and Friday. We will focus on comparing fractions and adding and subtracting fractions and decimals of tenths and hundredths.

In science, will are finishing up our test that we started last week and then we'll focus on wrapping up the IB unit of inquiry.
