This week, In Math, we continued working through chapter 3 by discussing absolute value and how it can be used to determine length on a number line. We completed the chapter 3 closure, individual review and individual assessment. Next week, we will start by reflecting on our assessment and introduce chapter 4 vocabulary, and then get into the chapter, which focuses on introducing variables and writing and evaluating algebraic expressions.
In ELA, we finished our unit on the Boy Who Harnessed the Wind by watching the movie and comparing and contrasting it with the novel. Next week, we will be starting a three week unit on poetry!
In Science, we began lesson 3 of unit 2, which explains how plants are living systems. We have been talking about the levels of organization of a plant, how they respond to the environment, and how the plant uses photosynthesis to survive. We took a quiz today on this topic. Next week, we will complete Unit 2 lesson 4, which explains how animals are living systems.
Finally, In History, we have been working through lessons on Egypt and their neighboring kingdom Kush. Next week, we will continue Egypt and the Middle East with some information about the ancient Hebrews and their connection to Egypt. We will finish the week with the review for the unit.
