This week, In Math, we have finished working through the lessons in chapter 4 of our math curriculum. Next week, we will work through ending the chapter with the closure, team and individual tests, and finally the test reflection at the end of the week.
In ELA, we have been working on learning about different poetic forms and creating our own to go along with them. Next week, we will be finishing up our poetry unit by talking about different types of poetry around the world, as well as narrative and epic poetry. We are then going to take their poems and bind them into a book of their poetry. The kids did a great job and are excited about getting them bound!
In Science, we have been completing Unit 2 with a project where students choose an animal or plant cell and create a model plant cell in a mint tin, where they discuss how it functions as a system. Next week, we will be starting Unit 3, which has a focus on how energy flows through systems. We will focus on Lesson 1 next week, which talks about how energy flows and causes change.
Finally, In History, we finished up our Unit on Ancient Egypt with a test and a final art project. Next week, due to minimum days, we will be pausing our History curriculum and picking it back up after the break. Some students want to do retakes for their Egypt test. They have until the end of the trimester to complete the retake form found in the History Google Classroom under "Class Resources." When they complete the document, they attach it to the assessment assignment in Google Classroom for me to review.
