CURRICULM FOR 5th GRADE - January 7th-10th:
Math: We will complete Lessons 52, 53, 54, and 55 this week. Some of the "New Concepts" in our lessons this week include mentally dividing decimal numbers by 10 and 100, simplifying fractions, dividing fractions, and common denominators.
***Please make sure books are covered. Please use paper bags as the elastic covers do not protect the books that well. Here are instructions on how to cover the math book: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fpaUSjqXro or https://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Book-Cover
ELA: Students are enjoying the crazy adventures of Don Quixtoe! We will continue reading about Don Quixtoe and will continue our work on the unit project for writing which is a persuasive essay. Before break, students practiced writing claims, or thesis statements. This week students will write a rough draft of their introductory paragraph. They will also begin to plan their two body paragraphs which will support the claim they made in their introductory paragraph using evidence from the text.
Science: Our current unit in science is "Modeling Earth's Systems." After an introduction to Earth's four spheres, we've taken a closer look at the hydrosphere, the geosphere, and the atmosphere. This week we will take a closer look at the biosphere which included all living things on Earth. We will also begin talking about how the 4 spheres interact with one another.
History: Please refer to Mrs. Fallis' website for information regarding history.
