A Peek at Next Week

 A Look at Next Week:

ELA:

Reading- Students will continue to practice writing reading responses.  While writing these responses we will use the R.A.C.E.S. strategy.  R=Restate; A=Answer; C=Cite evidence; E=Explain the evidence; S=Sum it up in a concluding sentence.

Word Work- Students will get their new word parts from List 2:  alter, anti, bi, geo, ology, and script.

Writing- Students will continue building their writing endurance in their Writer's Notebook.  They will also be learning about different ways to write hooks at the beginning of their stories.

Math: Students will be learning how to write expressions and using the partial product when multiplying.

Science:  Students will continue to discuss different models that are helping us visualize the distance between stars and the Earth.  They will also practice using scientific words in their evidence in order to support their claims.

Social Studies:  Students will  continue to discuss Lesson 4.1, "Voyages of Columbus."  They will go over our four key questions:  

1. What groups of people are involved? (What do they believe? What do they want?) 

2. How do these individuals or groups go about getting what they want?  (What worked or didn't work, and why?

3. What can be learned from the choices of these individuals or groups?

4. What does it remind you of? (Can you connect to a past or current event?)
