Happy Weekend and Happy February!
Here is what we were up to this week in room 35 ...
Science: We learned about the properties of matter, mixtures, solutions, and compounds by doing science stations! The class favorite seemed to be making SeeSaw videos to show their learning!
Reading: We wrapped up our fantasy unit by discussing how characters often have complex personalities, symbolism, and allegories. We are looking forward to starting our argument unit next week.
Writing: We finished up our literary essays by editing and revising this week. We enjoyed having a chance to read peer's essays on Friday. We are going to start a fantasy writing unit next week.
Math: This week we added and subtracted mixed numbers. We had to use strategies we learned in our last chapter to help us do this. We will have a review day on Monday and our Chapter 8/9 Test will be on Tuesday!
Social Studies: We started our next chapter focused on the industrial revolutions. We even got to participate in a real assembly line activity!
**BIG NEWS**
Our 1-1 Chromebooks are arriving this week! We are so excited to take this step and feel privileged to have this opportunity. We have outlined a constitution for these new pieces of technology and look forward to all of the awesome experiences to come!
Upcoming Events:
2/7: Early Release (1:40 dismissal)
2/9: Jump Rope for Heart & Counselor's Day
Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Meredith Holtmann
