Monday, May 26 - No School, Memorial Day
Math - This week in math the students will use place value and equivalent fractions to add two fractions with respective denominators 10 and 100. They will also compare and order decimals to hundredths by reasoning about their size. There will be a test over chapter 10 on Friday.
Spelling- This week is a review week. The students will be responsible for workbook pages 247-249 this week.
English- In English this week, there is a test planned for Thursday over pronouns. The students should take their books home to review the lessons learned about pronouns. They will have assignments throughout the week to help them review as well. There is lots of practice at the end of the chapter for them to use.
Reading - The students will be working in their literature circles. They will be reading assigned chapters and completing a designated job each day. I would encourage them to reread chapters at home if they have read them in school. This will help them gain a better understanding of the chapter and prepare them for their group discussion.
Science - This week in science the students will understand how electricity and magnetism are related. They will investigate how a magnet's force and magnetic field are different and how a magnet and an electromagnet are alike and different.
Social Studies - The students will identify some resources of the West. They will identify agricultural products that are grown in the West.
The students will also continue to work on their slide show of the West. They should be working on this at home as well on their Google Doc.
