Looking Ahead...What's to Come? 

In writing this year, we will cover a variety of topics to help our students develop and become stronger writers. We will work on personal narratives, persuasive writing, research-based writing, memoirs, poetry, and interpretive essays.  We will work with students on making our writing exciting with adding details, strong transitions, and proper paragraph format. 

 

In math this year, we will cover a variety of concepts to help students to continue to build foundational skills! Some of these topics include multiplication, division, story problems, mean, median and range, area and volume, graphing, fractions, decimals, comparing and contrasting.  We will spend time working on critical thinking skills through reasoning and explaining our thoughts and answers. 

 

This year in reading we will look at growing in our reading through discussion, writing about what we read and small group work.  Some of the topics we will cover include theme, main idea, cause and effect, summarizing our text, point of view, author's purpose to name a view.  Students will meet with a small group for thirty minutes each day.  We encourage students to read at least 30 minutes each night. 

Each day students will use Google Meets to sign on for Morning Meeting at 8:00 with thier teacher. They will also use it to reach teachers during office hours and small group time.  Each teacher code is provided.
