Hello parents,
I hope you had a nice weekend! Students will be unable to do iReady this week or next week. Please do not have your children go on iReady over the next 2 weeks. Thanks so much! Spelling- Sort 22, 23, 24. Focus on sort 22 this week. Students will have a spelling quiz on February 14th. Reading- We will continue looking at various passages to identify text structures: description, main idea, compare and contrast, cause and effect, sequencing, problem and solution. This week we will be reviewing all of the text structures in preparation for a quiz on Thursday. This kahoot will help students prepare for the quiz: 0279220 Writing- We will be starting our new unit on opinion writing this week. Students will be able to write opinion pieces on topics or texts and supporting a point of view with reasons. They will introduce the topic or book they are writing about, state an opinion, and create an organizational structure that lists reasons. Students will provide reasons that support the opinion and use linking words and phrases (e.g., because, therefore, since, for example) to connect opinion and reasons. They will also provide a concluding statement or section. Grammar- Students will learn about comparative and superlative adverbs and adjectives. Science- We will be starting a new unit on fossils and will be learning about what paleontologists do. In this unit, students will learn to obtain, evaluate, and communicate information on how fossils provide evidence of past organisms. We will have a quiz on Friday. This kahoot will help students review: 0143078. Upcoming dates and reminders:
