Students are writing their own fables this week. Students will create animal characters and pick a moral that they want their character to learn. Then they will piece together a story with a problem and solution leading to the moral they picked.
Reading:
Our study of folk tales continues as we learn about tall tales and myths. We will learn about distinguishing characteristics of each and read several examples to add to our folk tale knowledge.
Math:
Students are continuing to learn about fractions. Students will practice identifying the fraction and also creating fractions. They will learn to identify halves, fourths, eighths, sixths, and thirds. Students will create a fraction creature and learn that as the number of pieces a whole is cut into increases, the pieces get smaller.
Science:
We are wrapping up weather and seasons this week. Then we will be looking up to learn about objects in the sky and how they follow a pattern. Students will look at phases of the moon and different types of clouds.
