Math News
This week we will be focusing on the computation of fractions. This is a very difficult skill because you have to put many things in place before you are able to add or subtract the actual fractions. Please practice this skill with you children at home.
Reading
We are beginning a class novel, Al Capone Does My Shirts. It is a story about a young boy during the depression that goes to live on Alcatraz Island because it is the only job his father could get during this awful time. The class has really enjoyed novels about the past and I hope that this book does not disappoint.
Writing News
We are finishing up our personal narrative stories this week. It has been extremely interesting to see the class take a piece of writing and expand on its details. I look forward to reading them!
Social Studies
As requested, the students will be completing their Jamestown unit with projects inside Minecraft to accompany the assessment. I have also provided and alternate assignment for those who do not want to use technology to show what they have learned.
