Writing:
This week we are taking what we've learned about the powers of persuasion and creating a travel brochure to our favorite place. Students will choose a place (near or far!) near and dear to their heart and will be responsible for designing and writing their brochure using catchy phrases and captivating pictures.
Reading:
This week we are continuing our study of different cultures from around the world. We will be studying the cultures from India, Germany, Mexico, the Netherlands, and more. We are so excited to learn more about the world around us and how to be kind and respectful to cultures different from ours. We would love to hear more about your culture! Want to come in and present your food, clothing, way of life, etc? Please contact me and we can figure out a time for you to come in.
Math:
Put on your 3D glasses: This week we are learning about three dimensional shapes! Students will learn about the attributes of different shapes, vocabulary words such as edge, face, and vertex, and where these shapes are hiding in everyday life. At the end of the week, we will take a short assessment over everything we've learned.
Science:
It's fresh water versus salt water this week as we study the difference between the two. Students will discover where we can find fresh and salt water, what kinds of things live in each, and if items will float when put into each. We will also look at natural and man-made resources and how we use each everyday.
