Welcome Back & Topic Overview


Welcome back from spring break. I heard lots of interesting stories today. This week we are continuing to learn about geometry in math workshop. We have been working with pentominoes lately. In writing workshop we will be starting a new unit on How-To Books. Reading groups are going well, and we will be focusing on biographies this month, with more heterogenous grouping. For spelling this week, we are continuing homonyms. Today we played bingo to practice the meanings of the words. In science we will be learning about pebbles, sand, and silt as we explore a FOSS kit with hands-on learning. Clubs start this Friday and I know the students will enjoy mingling with other classes and grade levels as they participate in this annual activity.
