Language Arts: We are researching a self selected
topic of interest using our media center data base as well as books that
support our topic. During our expository writing unit, we are developing
and supporting main ideas in our writing as well as incorporating transition
words (such as first, second, and most importantly). We've learned that these
words help guide the reader through the explanation. We have talked about the
various types of expository writing and are practicing them in class. We are
doing this alongside the writing we do in all subjects each day!
Social Studies: In Michigan history we looked at
the period of time when Europeans came over and encountered the Native
Americans. Now we are focused on how our land became a territory and then
a state.
Science: We a re conducting experiments to support
our study of Variables. This unit will last for several more weeks and is
a lot of fun! WE NEED YOUR HELP!!! Please have your child bring in 10-20 pennies that are dated 1983-2014. Thank you!!!
