In writing, we will be preparing for the MAP test by taking a practice test. Toward the end of the week, students will take a look at the rubric in which they will be scored on by the state and then score their own writing.
We will be wrapping up chapter 6 in social studies and begin science fair projects. A couple weeks ago, the students chose their top three favorite science fair topics. They were placed into groups. This week, they will begin developing questions that they want to answer about the topic and begin formulating their hypothesis.
In math, students will be classifying, measuring, and drawing angles. They will be classifying acute, obtuse, and right angles. By the end of the week, students will be using protractors in order to measure and draw angles.
In reading, we will finish reading and summarizing Little House in the Big Woods. Students have been summarizing each chapter of this book by using multiple different summarizing strategies.
A letter was sent home today in regards to the Missouri State Assessment. This letter includes tips to ease pre-test jitters and has the testing dates. There are a few changes this year for testing that are referenced in the letter.
As always, please let us know if you have any questions or concerns. Have a great week!
