Math

This week, In Math, we started our next chapter (Chapter 6), which focuses on dividing fractions, order of operations, and algebraic expressions. We have been working through division this week, and will work through order of operations and start algebraic expressions next week. We will pause for two days next week to complete MAP testing on Tuesday and Wednesday.

ELA

In ELA, the kids have completed a fishbowl to start the week. Their conversation topic was centered around Percy Jackson and character traits we can infer about him based on his choices. We then moved into working on identifying themes in both The Lightning Thief and in classical myths that are alluded to in The Lightning Thief. We will continue this work next week and, On Wednesday, the students will be tested on their ability to identify and support a theme within a classic myth and compare it to The Lightning Thief. We will end the week with the Winter Reading MAP test. To celebrate filling the orange bucket of Gator Tickets during the school rally before winter break, we'll be taking a break from ELA following MAP testing to watch Inside Out 2!

Science

In Science, we have been completed the final lesson of Unit 3, Lesson 4, which discusses how energy flows through the water cycle. Students learned about how thermal energy influences the kinetic energy of water molecules and how that causes water to change states and drive the water cycle.  Students completed a quiz today on this topic. Next week, we will be starting Unit 4 of our science curriculum, which focuses on Weather and Climate.

History

Finally, In History, we have started our unit on Ancient India! We have discussed the geography and how that determined where the earliest people settled before getting into some of the earlier civilizations.  Next week we will continue our learning and be introduced to some major religions within India!
