Math- We will have a test over chapter 9 on fractions on Tuesday of this week. They should go through their folders and study the skills from the pages we have completed. If there are unfinished problems on those pages they can use those as extra practice. They can also bring home their workbook which has other pages for them to review. I will send home extra practice to help them study as well.
Spelling - The students will spell words with unusual patterns this week. They will be responsible for workbook pages 213-215. There will be a test on Friday of this week.
Reading- We will begin literature circles this week. The students will review the reading skills they have learned throughout the year as they read and complete their activities for the circle. They will choose between two books to read. They will be given a reading assignment each night to complete.
English - The students will identify object pronouns, and they will write sentences replacing nouns with pronouns.
Science - This week in science the students will compare parallel and series circuits. They will also investigate insulators and conductors and test materials to discover which are insulators and which are conductors.
